A couple of weeks ago I had to replace an ancient firewall machine (h/w failure). That machine had been running FC3 without problems for well over a year, and it was my proxy server running squid. I thought that I would upgrade the O/S, and I installed F7. (Mistake?) Everything else works fine, but I now have spent several days trying to get squid working properly. My config file I suspect a squid vs selinux problem, but I am stuck at this point. I cannot tell for sure but I think that port 3128 is getting blocked. netstat -a doesn't show the port to be in use. If anyone with any pointers, web links, etc., can help, I would greatly appreciate it. If I can't find a solution in the next few days, I'll have to try a more drastic approach. When squid is booted, neither access.log nor squid.out ever contains anything, and all machines (linux and windoze) get access denials from the squid server. (They can all ping the machine and it is possible to telnet into it from them, so I know the i/p connections work.) I see the "normal" start and stop messages in /var/log when squid is started and stopped (but only those). If you need more info please write me and I will post it. Somebody please help - I don't want to have to reinstall FC3 and put the old backup tapes on ... Thanks in advance, -- william w. austin waustin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx "life is just another phase i'm going through. this time, anyway ..."
