The idea is to block all users not in the AD security group "InternetUsers" from accessing the internet. When I try to start the squid service it fails and checking /var/logs/messages it reads:

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am making a simple Pandora.com alternative for myself and a few friends where the user can upload his/her songs and listen to them anywhere. My intent is to make a lightweight, simple player in HTML5 so all the user needs is a current Firefox or Chrome to use it. I have set it up so that all uploaded songs get converted to .ogg and added to a database but I also want some metadata (not sure if that is the correct term) for the songs to be stored in the database so the player can tell the user what song he/she is listening too. I know there are several GUI tools for managing the title/artist/album info for songs but I'm having trouble finding any good ones I can use from the command line. If the song has the information already in the file, I think I can use mplayer to retrieve the information but it would be really great if there was one that would look up the song information online.

View 9 Replies View Relatedi want to setup squid proxy server at my home. my service provider has ISA server install on its machine. in windows as a client we have to enter proxy settings manually to IE and firefox. but now in squid where i have to define to use this proxy settings. and what about /etc/resolv.conf . my service provider's connection settings are stated as under.:
IP ADDR= 192.168.1.x
subnet mask=255.255.255.0
Proxy= 192.168.1.1 port= 8080
I followed this guide: [URL] and restart the Squid Server with no errors but when I try to SSH into it:
Code:
ssh -L 8080:squidserver:8080 user@squidserver
It just hangs there for a long time, not timing out and eventually (after a long wait) I get this:
Code:
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
What could be the problem? I can SSH normally into the computer, but not into the proxy server. Do I need to forward the 8080 port on that network?

View 7 Replies View Relatedhow-to configure squid proxy server. I still haven't been able to find a solution. I want to set up squid as a open http proxy server. So people from other networks can connect through the proxy without having to login.Do I have to use iptables to reroute http traffic to squids proxy port? I have forwarded the port in my ISP modem so I know thats working, its the squid config that has flaws or iptables locally.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to make a transparent squid proxy server in centos. The squid proxy version is 2.6 stable. I made a normal squid server but want to make it transparent so that users do not need to enter the proxy settings in web browser. Even i searched about this on google but not getting it properly.I have two lan cards on centos system. ETH1 used for LAN and ETH2 used for WAN. And in this squid.conf i written "http_port 172.16.31.1:3128 transparent" and i also added a rule in iptables which is "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128" but still i have to enter proxy settings at client's web browser to use internet
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 4 servers running squid/3.1.1 proxy server. Since the latest version I can no longer FTP. I have posted this problem in multiple places but have received almost no response. I've found several other post to this problem throughout the Internet which have also gone unanswered. So, once again, I thought I'd give it a try. As I said "I have 4 servers running the newest version of Squid". When I try to access an ftp, any ftp, I receive an error (check attached image). This was never a problem until just recently. Squid should work perfectly find with ftp, it is not a strictly http proxy.
I turned my firewall off just to make sure, still had the same issue. If I jump directly on the server itself with no proxy settings set in the browser it will work fine. As soon as I set the browser setting to access the Squid software I get the same error. I've included my squid config (which is unchanged from the default settings), maybe somebody better versed than myself can point out an obvious flaw. Everything else seem to work just fine, it's only FTP that's a problem.
We have two offices suppose A and B. At office A, we use centos 5.3 computer as router and squid proxy server. At office B we use a cisco router to connect to Internet. Computers at office A that has direct access to Internet can access computers behind cisco router at office B using vnc viewer. But computers at office A that can use internet only through squid proxy can't access computers behind cisco router at office B. Is there any way so that I could allow squid clients to access computer behind cisco router at office B using vnc viewer.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am starting to get bottlenecks in the loading of webpages via squid. It is not the actual playback of video that has performance issues, this is very good. However, when a webpage is first requested, it is the initial response that takes more than a few seconds to load the page. I am wondering how to troubleshoot the issue as I don't know whether it is squid, the dns lookup, the number of users, RAM, or the bandwidth. Bandwidth seems to be the least likely since the server has a high bandwidth and video streaming appears to have no problems. I do not have caching turned on yet, which would certainly help because I do not want to cache flb, mp3, etc. files and the last time I turned on caching the performance was actually worse. The slow loading of pages has only just beguin to creep into the performance, it wasn't an issue before.

I have eth0 which is where my internet comes in and eth1 which is my local network 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0.
My default firewall policy is to drop input output and forward, i have already set my firewall to accept and workout the squid and it is working.
Here is the relevant rules i have on my firewall:
Code:
Here is the sample conf i am using for squid:
Code:
Always_direct allow all When using version 2.7.x i was able to make it transparent when i used the below rules:
Code:
I readed the Docs on the squid page but the above rules can't be reproduced to 3.1 and i don't wish to use such rules to make it transparent or hidden so i want some help to figure out why it inst transparent.
I've been using squid-cache for a long time for authentication/authorization. It has work fine for years, but now it starts working too slow only in one computer (the others, works fine).
It's configured as a reverse proxy.
I see it can be a DNS problem, but the computer is configured with the same dns servers in resolv.conf that the other computers have.
I use squid 2.6.stable14 on RHEL 4.4.
If I restart the service (service squid restart) it works fine, but 15-20 minutes later, the problem repeats.
