A basic question. what is the use of installing squid in chroot, is
this something to do with ltsp?
Use this to have Squid do a chroot() while initializing. This
also causes Squid to fully drop root privileges after
initializing. This means, for example, if you use a HTTP
port less than 1024 and try to reconfigure, you will may get an
error saying that Squid can not open the port.

i trying to configure squid with chroot. When i start squid, i get the
following error message:
FATAL: MIME Config Table on//etc/squid3/mime.conf: (2) No such file or
directory
Squid Cache (Version 3.0.STABLE15): Terminated abnormally.
Odd..
The file exists. Does someone know, which dir is used for chroot?
What do you mean?
The directory Squid should chroot to is specified in the chroot
directive..
Ah, now I understand. Yes the documentation for the chroot directive is
a little fuzzy. It takes a directory argument where Squid should chroot
itself, not on/off..
