Install squid proxy on ubuntu 10.4 with cache directory on Different mounted drive
For dual OS on their PC, usually we have 2 or more partition drive.
Now i want to write how to install squid proxy on ubuntu with cache directory on different drive of your hard drive.
1st we must download and install the squid, open the terminal then type:
$ sudo apt-get install squidwait until the installation complete,
after installation complete type this command on the terminal
$ sudo gedit /etc/fstab
then find where your drive are mounted
on mine just like this:
# /media/Data was on /dev/sda5 during installation ......../media/DATA ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,umask= .......
then change from umask with the line
umask=077,uid=1000,gid=1000
by default the umask and uid was set for anyone who use your PC, by change the umask with that line above is to change the permission of your mounted drive to become as your user permission and your user group.
why i change the umask and uid, because when i install squid on my PC i found some error while creating the cache directory, thats why i change the permission of the mounted drive.
after change umask, uid, and gid we must restart our PC 1st.
After restart the PC open the terminal againt and tipe:
$ sudo gedit /etc/squid/squid.conf
on ubuntu 10.4 by tiping those command automatically creating the file on the folder if the folder exist.
so for the more easily way we do not need to use the touch command to creating file.
then copy this on the squid.conf
