This is not a tutorial to install squid, this is a notes from my experience when install squid on Debian Etch

#apt-get install squid3 vim

if no error when instalation, continued with make squid configuration. the name of file configuration is squid.conf

back-up your old squid.conf

#cd /etc/squid3
#mv squid.conf squid.conf.old
#vim squid.conf
