Squid proxy help needed




Posted by sindhuxyz, 08-26-2012, 08:56 AM
Hi, I want to setup my VPS as proxy server. I have few queries if any expert can guide me: 1) If I get 50 IP addresses for VPS then can I make those IP addresses as 50 proxies? Example: 1.1.1.1:80 OR 1.1.1.1:3125 2) Can I install squid proxy on Windows Server? 3) What is minimum required RAM for Squid proxy? 4) Can I set ip address(proxies) as HTTP? Thanks

Hello 1) Yes this can be done via squid configs 2) Yes you can, personally never tried to 3) To start with I wouldn't imagine it would need a great deal, 512MB to 1GB, but in future you will need to increase when you have many more users using it. 4) Yes quid supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP etc Regards

I have managed it to work. But, it is picking all of assigned IP addresses, please let me know if there is any way to exclude any ip from squid proxy?
