Hello Everyone,
I am trying to set up a small intranet using Red Hat Linux 6.2. But, I
am facing some problems:
1. I want to set to a news server (using INND) which must be able to
accept news feed and post messages. There may be some private
newsgroups (i.e. for the intranet users only). We will be connecting to the
'net thru VSNL dial-up service. So, restricting the no. of newsgroups available
is essential. Any pointers to HOW-TOs, etc. will be appreciated.
2. We are planning to use multiple dial-up connections using modems. Is
there any way to do so without using any fancy hardware ? A single server
will act as the Internet gateway for the intranet. It should be able to route the
traffic so that there is load balancing.
3. We are using Squid to set up a proxy server. It seems to be working.
But, I am facing a problem. The proxy server is not caching the web pages
which are hosted on a external server (e.g. the pages of www.yahoo.com or
www.slashdot.org). However, it is properly caching the pages hosted on the
server in the intranet. Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Yours,
Soumava
