F7 problem with squid - please help

[William W. Austin]

A couple of weeks ago I had to replace an ancient firewall machine (h/w 
failure).  That machine had been running FC3 without problems for well 
over a year, and it was my proxy server running squid.

I thought that I would upgrade the O/S, and I installed F7. (Mistake?)

Everything else works fine, but I now have spent several days trying to 
get squid working properly.  My config file

I suspect a squid vs selinux problem, but I am stuck at this point.  I 
cannot tell for sure but I think that port 3128 is getting blocked.  
netstat -a doesn't show the port to be in use.

If anyone with any pointers, web links, etc., can help, I would greatly 
appreciate it.  If I can't find a solution in the next few days, I'll 
have to try a more drastic approach.

When squid is booted, neither access.log nor squid.out ever contains 
anything, and all machines (linux and windoze) get access denials from 
the squid server.  (They can all ping the machine and it is possible to 
telnet into it from them, so I know the i/p connections work.)

I see the "normal" start and stop messages in /var/log when squid is 
started and stopped (but only those).

If you need more info please write me and I will post it.

Somebody please help - I don't want to have to reinstall FC3 and put 
the old backup tapes on ...

Thanks in advance,
