4.11. Reconfiguring Frontier Squid

The default customization of Squid is done during the OS install, the resulting configuration file is /etc/squid/customize.sh.

In case squid was not installed at kickstart, it is possible to install it in a node or appliance after kickstart by setting OSG_SQUID on a host or appliance followed by syncing as shown below: # rocks set host attr <hostname> OSG_SQUID value=true # rocks sync host osg squid install <hostname>

To reconfigure squid on a node, make appropriate attribute changes (see table Customizing OSG squid attrs) using the commands above and then run

# rocks sync host osg squid <hostname>

This will rewrite the file /etc/squid/customize.sh then you can start the service with the command service frontier-squid start

To view the contents of the /etc/squid/customize.sh before making changes, use rocks report host osg squid config <hostname>
