[K12OSN] k12ltsp 4.2.1 & squid

[bear2bar at netscape.net]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the help.
In /var/log/squid/squid.out 
[root at krypton ~]# tail -f /var/log/squid/squid.out &
[1] 17602
[root at krypton ~]# CPU Usage: 0.024 seconds = 0.012 user + 0.012 sys
Maximum Resident Size: 0 KB
Page faults with physical i/o: 0
FATAL: Could not determine fully qualified hostname.  Please set 'visible_hostname'

Squid Cache (Version 2.5.STABLE9): Terminated abnormally.
CPU Usage: 0.023 seconds = 0.017 user + 0.006 sys
Maximum Resident Size: 0 KB
Page faults with physical i/o: 0
2005/04/12 22:58:21| Creating Swap Directories

Please note that I've set visible_hostname in squid.conf, squid-squidguard.conf and although squidguard starts without error no filtering is done. Apache is running & redirected to 8080 & port 80 is redirected to 3128 for squid

arrrrrrrrrrrr help
