Hi,
I need to go through a web proxy at my ISP. How can I configure
Dansguardian/Squid to use that proxy instead of connecting
directly to the Internet. It's NOT a case of a peer or parent
proxy because the ISPs proxy is not designed/permitted to
handle these kinds of requests. Do I have to play iptables
games? I'm using Fedora Core 6, and I think that it's almost
a miracle that I got my dialup PPP going because Kppp would
just go <defunct> on me....TIA!
You can just configure dansguardian to use your ISPs proxy as a parent.
All "parent" means in this setting is dansguardian will funnel all
requests through that proxy server just like any user agent would.

Also note, if you HAVE to use the ISP proxy to get internet access, look
into the never_direct option
(http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/ConfiguringSquid#head-c050a0a0382c01fbfb9da7e9c18d58bafd4eb027).
