[SOLVED] Configure squid proxy

[cyborg]

No really a fedora question.

I have installed squid on an AWS instance that I want to use for an http proxy with a password.

First off, I'm just trying to add an ACL to allow any network address to use squid (by default, I think it only lets 192.168.0.0/24)

I've added

http_access allow all
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0

but when I try and load a page I get

PHP Code:

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.co.uk/

    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.

You have supplied the correct password?

Unless there's a password by default, I haven't set one yet - that's stage 2.

You have restarted squid or at least told it to reload it's configuration file after you changed it?

[cyborg]

yep! service squid restart

Please post your squid.conf file so that i can have a look and tell you the reason.

Fixed it now, there was a Deny All somewhere in the conf that I needed to hash (a default line). All fixed now.
