3. Setting default port

Click Port and Networking if you want to change default port of squid (3128) to other port you like. Just remember NOT to change it to port under 1024. If you don’t want to change anything, leave it as default.

4. Setting username/password authentication

The best configuration for my opinion is let every ip adress can access our Squid Proxy, we will use password authentication for more flexyble usage.

enter ACL name and leave anything else default ones. Hit save button.

Enter Proxy Restriction Tab and click Create Proxy Restriction. Select Deny in the Action field, and choose your new auth ACL from the Don’t match ACLs list

Use the up arrow next to the new restriction to move it above Deny All

Click Return to squid index and click Authentication Programs.

From the Authentication program field select Webmin default and leave anything else in default value. Click save.

Hit Proxy Authentication icon, and click Add a new proxy user.

Enter username and password
