Hello,
I just joined the list and this is my first posting. I am new to Linux so some of the questions may be trivial.
As an experiment I installed mandrake 9 on one old box with the intention to use it as a gateway/mail/proxy server replacing a w2k box with 602Pro LanSuite (which works very well).
After a bit of fiddling I got routing and Squid running, but on my Windows clients, when trying to access web, I get an error message from Squid about access being denied.
I am curious if anyone could tell me if this is a case of Squid configuration error, or Telstra could be blocking requests coming from Squid because it's a home ADSL connection that I
am using.
The error message reads as follows:
*********************************************************************
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
---------------------------------------------------------------------
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.yahoo.com/
The following error was encountered:
Access Denied.
Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.
Your cache administrator is root.

Thanks for any hints.
