Configuring Squid for use on a web browser - beginner question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm having trouble getting Squid setup. I installed squid on a Linux
server using yum, and in squid.conf uncommented the "http_port 3128"
line. Then I added the lines below:

# INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS
acl my_pc 123.123.123.123
http_access allow my_pc

(where 123.123.123.123 is my home PC's IP address)

After editing squid.conf I restarted squid, not sure if that's
necessary. "squid -k parse" returns no errors, and "squidclient
http://www.google.com"; works properly. When I setup my browser though,
it doesn't work. In IE I enter my server's IP as the proxy address,
and 3128 as the port. I also tried "http_access allow all".

What am I doing incorrectly, or what step am I missing?
