Squid Proxy Caching on Linux

[obzerver]

Hi,

I need help with Squid Proxy Caching Software.

I have reviewed the official Squid documents and searched the web extensively for it but couldn't find a simple configuration guide.


Here is my problem:

1- I installed FREEBSD release 7 [ Full Installation ]

2- I installed SQUID 3
./configure
make
make install

3. added only
visible_hostname myhost

4. run the command
./squid -z

5. ./squid start

but ./squid -k check
gives me:
Squid: error: could not send signal 0 to process 15456: (3) no such process



my question:
what is the minimum configuration i can do to start using squid just ?

thanks
