I also asked "where are you looking for the file squid.conf?"

I remember in some of your previous postings, you showed us a file which was 
the *documentation* for squid.conf, not squid.conf itself - and it said 
clearly at the top of the file:

#        This is the documentation for the Squid configuration file.

I just want to make sure you are not still trying to use that instead of the 
correct squid.conf file.

So, please confirm:

1. Where on your system is the squid.conf file which you are using?

2. Does that file contain the line above ("This is the documentation for the 
Squid configuration file.") at the top?

3. Does the file contain the line "# INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW 
ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS"?

4. Have you tried adding the lines containined in the tutorial you are trying 
to follow, immediately after the line in question 3?


Please make sure you answer all four questions when you reply.


Regards,


Antony.
