Re: [squid-users] Help!!! want to use a W2K client with a Linux Squid server

it is. Look at your acl list;
you need to add an acl to allow 192.168.0.1;
and you need to add it in the right place
(before the http_access deny all)

acl LAN src 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
http_access allow LAN

Subject: [squid-users] Help!!! want to use a W2K client with a Linux Squid
server

It started with a Red Hat 7.3, then configured dhcpd to connect another home
PC to the Red Hat Server, then for fun httpd apache, then ftpd, then samba.
The Red Hat Linux box has a network card and modem for connecting to the net
via the modem. I'm really psyched
with all I'm learning and to imagine the Software was practically free and
open source!

My other maching connected to the little hub is a windows 2k laptop. It is
running the windows dhcp client. My next step is to use the Linux box as a
an http and hopefully ftp daemon. I also have a website that I'd like to be
able to ftp from the windows laptop.

I installed Squid 2.4.STABLE6-1.7.2 and I've configured MS IE5.0 LAN
settings
to use a proxy with the IP address of the linux box (192.168.0.1), and port
3128. As I mentioned I'm using a dial PPP connection to the ISP from the
Linux box.

When I try to browse from the windows machine, I get a Squid error saying
Access Denied, access control configuration prevents your request from being
allowed at this time.

Please help. I've tried to read the manual, and have searched the net high
and low. where can i find our how to do this? I suspect it's something to
do
with the acl or http_access in the squid.conf file but at this point some
expert advice would really help.

Thanks
