squid setup - what goes after install?

Hi all,

ok, it's a cake to install the squid, but what goes after that?
Currently I'm using privoxy for web filtering and I set my web browser to access Internet through localhost:8118 (default in Privoxy). But what should be used for squid (web caching and filtering mode with Dans or AdZapper)?
Squid manual isn't a great friend here.

Also, are there any special iptables rules that need to be added in an already working set?

Squid usually runs on port 3128 but you can set this in the squid.conf.

Re: squid setup - what goes after install?

thanks kpiche,

yes, I did try 3128, but there was "something" wrong with my .conf that didn't let me go further. I've re-read squid users manual again last night, and for the time being, I'll drop it and carry on using privoxy only.
Squid... just too much confusion (bad manual, perhaps?) ... sorry, some other time, maybe...
