Hello,

Here my own squid.conf file. It works fine for me. If you have questions
related to it please send direct mail. I try to help. You know here is a
FreeBSD list. :-)

squid.conf
--- begin
http_port 3128
cache_mem  40 MB
cache_dir /squid/cache 1024 16 256
cache_access_log /home/squid/access.log
cache_log /home/squid/cache.log
cache_store_log /home/squid/store.log
debug_options ALL,2
connect_timeout 120 seconds
#Defaults:
acl ozler src 128.0.0.16-128.0.0.50/255.255.0.0
acl izinsiz src 128.0.0.10-128.0.0.15/255.255.0.0
acl sabiha src 128.0.0.26/255.255.0.0
acl birgul src 128.0.0.23/255.255.0.0
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
#Default configuration
http_access allow ozler
http_access deny !ozler
#http_access deny izinsiz sabiha birgul
http_access deny all
--- end

I recently upgraded to Squid 2.2-STABLE5 version of squid.
Now I can say that it is better than 2.2-STABLE3.
