Good idea. Here's a minimal Apache proxy setup:
--------------------------------------
LoadModule access_module modules/mod_access.so
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
User apache
Group apache
ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PidFile /var/run/httpd-proxy.pid
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-proxy-error.log
ServerName proxybox
Listen 8080
StartServers 1
MinSpareThreads 10
MaxSpareThreads 30
ProxyRequests On
ProxyVia On
<Proxy *>
Order allow,deny
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Proxy>
ProxyRemote * http://proxy.du.jour:8080
# A small disk cache too, while at it:
LoadModule cache_module modules/mod_cache.so
LoadModule disk_cache_module modules/mod_disk_cache.so
CacheEnable disk /
CacheSize 65536
CacheRoot "/var/cache/httpd-proxy"
--------------------------------------
Save to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-proxy.conf, then
# mkdir /var/cache/httpd-proxy
# chown apache:root /var/cache/httpd-proxy
# chmod 700 /var/cache/httpd-proxy
(using Fedora Core 4 paths).
To run/stop/restart:
# /usr/sbin/httpd.worker -f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-proxy.conf -k start
# /usr/sbin/httpd.worker -f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-proxy.conf -k stop
# /usr/sbin/httpd.worker -f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-proxy.conf -k restart

The above Apache setup uses 1.6MB resident (impressive modularization
work by the Apache team!), and is rather simpler to configure than Squid.
