Squid has reasonable defaults for almost everything, except for access
controls (hard for Squid to know what should be allowed).

Minimum Squid configuration file:

acl all src 0.0.0.0/0
acl mynetwork src 192.168.1.0/24
http_access allow mynetwork

But you should also specify at least one cache_dir. If no cache_dir is
specified Squid will default to a 100 MB cache as per the defaults of
the cache_dir directive.

Use of the other http_access rules and the acl directives used by them
as shown squid.conf.default is strongly recommended for increased
security.

Henrik
