Basically I want to buy a dedicated server with a package of 254 ips. I need these ips converted into proxies (socks) I have a friend who did this, but forgot exactly how its done.

Sent you a PM

so you basically need to install a SQUID Server, i am thinking you want these proxies to be used with logon/passwords right? it's a pretty straigh forward operation.. but make sure you take your security measurments. I can contribute to helping you if you like.. not looking for money in return, i got some solid backround with linux/Openbsd/Freebsd as well as MS windows servers ( 2003,2008 )
