(no password is required). after editing i type at the command line /usr/local/squid/bin/squid.conf -k reconfigure. what happens is, i got the message access denied.
 
 You should probably have said:
 
 	/usr/local/squid/bin/squid -k reconfigure
 
 (note - no .conf). Also you don't say what the exact error message was,
 but if you got an "Operation not permitted" message it probably means
 that you didn't run the command as either root or the squid user.Try
 again as root.
 
 (BTW - you should press return about once every 70 characters so you
 don't send lines which are nearly 500 characters long!)
