Hi, I have several aborted attempts to get what I want to do to work and have failed miserably every time, so I thought I would ask you for advice. My plan is simple (in my head anyway) I want to set in place a device to run squid proxy so that I can the reduce bandwidth usage and also so i can see what users are doing on the web. So far I have tried a Windows solution but could not sort out the syslog bit and a linux solution which I struggled with and had to give up. My plan is to host squid on a virtual server hosted in Hyper V, on my previous attempts with linux I tried to use the gui desktop but could not get it to display properley so I am going to have to work around the command line to get it working. Can anyone help with this? Which OS should I use? What monitoring software would you recommend? I am trying to keep costs to a minimum while doing this while managing to have a reasonable solution. Thanks in advance for any advice you can pass on. alamb200 -- View this message in context: http://squid-web-proxy-cache.1019090.n4.nabble.com/What-do-you-recommend-tp4663512.html Sent from the Squid - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
