To compile squid from source, you need to unpack the tar archive, go to the directotro to which it has been unpacked and issue './confugure' command with the desired options. The options will specify the SQUID features which will be present in the complied SQUID program. This will prepare source files and Makefiles for compilation with the desired features. Then you should issue 'make' command to compile the source. Then issue the command 'make install' to copy the compiled SQUID program and other files (such as configuration and web pages with error message s) to the locations where those files will be used. The detailed description of the compilation process could be found at: http://squid-docs.sourceforge.net/latest/html/x220.html Then you should specify the runtime configuration in the file 'squid.conf'. The guides with description of run-time configuration and usage of SQUID could be found at: http://squid-docs.sourceforge.net/latest/html/book1.html or on the SQUID website: http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc Alexey Fadyushin Brainbench MVP for Linux. http;//www.brainbench.com > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list- > bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of lasa > Sent: Monday, November 28, 2005 2:52 PM > To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list > Subject: Re: install squid from source cords > > Pls tell me the exect steps for this kink of approach, Installing squid > from > source codes and bring up the service......
