The default installation of Squid under Red Hat is configured not to allow
any outside access to your Squid cache. This was done for security
reasons. If you would like to access Squid from other clients, edit your
/etc/squid/squid.conf file (as root), and make the following changes
(look for "ACCESS CONTROLS" as you will be making changes here):
First, you will need to create an "acl" (access control list) for the
class A/B/C/D address(es) you wish to allow access for. For example, if I
wish to allow my "LeetNet" 205.100.100.* class C access, as well as giving
access to my "haxor" buddy who uses 123.234.011.13 as well as
123.234.011.14, I could create an acl for them:
acl leetnet 205.100.100.0/205.100.100.0
acl haxor 123.234.011.13/123.234.011.14
Then, a little lower (under the "INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S)..." line), I
would then add:
http_access allow leetnet
http_access allow haxor
After you have saved your changes, you will need to restart Squid (type
/etc/rc.d/init.d/squid restart) in order for the changes to take effect.
Cheers...
