Hi,

This is my very first contribution in this forum. I just finished setting squid on my vps linux box. Just to remind myself, I write the steps on my blog. I share here because most of you need good proxy just like me ;)

Here is the link:

I'm not a linux geek, I may not able to answer your questions. At least it work for me and I'm quite happy. Now ordering 10 more IP blocks for my vps ;)
 
I appreciate your tutorial but damn, i cannot understand anything, should you make it more clearer? i mean that tutorial are for pros.
 
Yaeh man good effort but a bit hard to understand for noobs like me...
I am really interested in the matter would you give us some more details please mate.
Thank you.
 
Yeah, as others said it does require some technical knowledge but if you've played around with any *NIX computers before then it should be a piece of cake. Great guide!
 
can this work on a windows vps?

setting up squid is the easy part, the OP was a great simple way of getting squid installed. The issue is finding providers that will give you c-blocks of IPs at a cheap rate.

Example, many "exclusive providers" give you an exclusive IP for $2.
Multiply that by 253, and you are spending $506 for a C-Block (throw in a discount, and you're at like $450)

Get your own dedi for $75, install squid, say you get a Cblock for $100.
Now for $175 total you have your own CBlock... truely exclusive
enjoy!
 
hehehe so finally shared yeah ! i m using same in linux server for setting up proxies squid is gr8 ! andeasy to setup but require at least some knowledge with linux else u cant do it
 
Provider also asked what will I do with the IPs. I said I use for my domains ;)
Do they suspend/terminate our account if we say "I want them for private proxies" ?
 
I don't think telling them they are for proxies is a good idea. Some hosts follow ICANN rules strictly. You are supposed to have a good reason for needing dedicated IPs.

Tell the you need them for domains and that each domain needs it's own SSL certificate. This satisfies ICANN rules.
 
can this work on a windows vps?

You'll need to download a Windows binary from their site (Google squid cache). Although I haven't used it, WinProxy is also a popular alternative.
