Squid Configuration - Set proxy forwarding

walter crasto_1 — Fri, 16 Jul 2004 08:04:50 GMT

Hi,

I am configuring Squid-Proxy on RedHat Linux AS3. I want to configured such a way so that my squid-proxy server will take all clients http/https/ftp request & forwards it to my ISP's proxy server.

Can any body let me know where & how can I set the forward IP in squid.conf file.

Thanx in advance

Regards
Walter

there should be a configuration about parent that forwards the request to a greater server (towards the internet)or your ISP. more info can be found on this:

Hi Walter,

Here is my configuration :

cache_peer IP_OF_ISP_PROXY parent PORT_OF_ISP_PROXY 7 proxy-only no-query no-netdb-exchange connect-timeout=10

Good luck,
