hi everyone...recently, i tried installing squid in ubuntu via "sudo apt-get install"...after the install, i checked: sudo /etc/init.d/squid status it tells me that squid is running...i rebooted my pc, checked squid's status again, still, its up and running...i started configuring squid at /etc/squid/squid.conf...after configuring and satisfied...i checked for errors... sudo squid -k parse no errors...i rebooted again, after the reboot, i checked squid's status, now, it is telling me that squid is not running...ive tried so many ways but to no avail...tried update-rc.d, tried scripting the rc.local, but no progress at all... question is: in order to safeguard my squid's integrity and preventing other users exploiting my configuration when i'm not around. i've set my system to autologin as user with administrative privileges, now, how can i make squid run automatically using this account?in this way, when i'm not around, other users may just turn the machine on and start browsing the internet using their own machines? reasons why i want to this is for security and outsmarting advanced users here in my office...if they'll only turn the pc, they won't need my password to do su or sudo...
