Nik,
It looks as if you've got your access control lists set incorrectly for
Squid. Edit your /etc/squid/squid.conf appropriately.
You'll need to look out for lines like
acl <acl name> src <ip-range>
and
http_access <deny/allow> <acl name>
The final http_access rule should be
http_access deny all
All the best...
Mike

Subject: [SLUG] Squid - configuration or telstra issue
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.
