Hey,
The script that starts a service is usually at "/etc/init.d/Service_name"
Which "Service_name" in this case is squid.
Since you compiled squid from source It is possible that you don't have
the "squid" startup script.
You can run the command "/usr/sbin/squid -h" to get the options how to
start squid.
"/usr/sbin/squid -k parse" will show you if there is an error on your
squid.conf.
To shutdown squid you can use "squid -k shut" and it can takes about 30
secs to fully shutdown.
I have hope that the release of the new RPMs(3.3.11 +3.4.0.3) will
happen next week.
For now I am testing 3.3.11 and it seems to run very nice and passed the
24 hours usage with no problem.

Hi Eliezer,
As recommended, I installed Squid V3.3.11. I followed the instructions
provided athttp://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CompilingSquid
Downloaded the tar file, unzipped it and then did the following.
# You will need the usual build chain
yum install -y perl gcc autoconf automake make sudo wget
# and some extra packages
yum install libxml2-devel libcap-devel
# to bootstrap and build from bzr needs also the packages
yum install libtool-ltdl-devel
The following ./configure options install Squid into the CentOS structure
properly:
--prefix=/usr
--includedir=/usr/include
--datadir=/usr/share
--bindir=/usr/sbin
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/squid
--localstatedir=/var
--sysconfdir=/etc/squid
Now when I try to restart the squid service, it says unrecognized service.
Pls help
