Smoothwall is so easy that anyone with basic knowledge of networking can have router, caching server and firewall running in no time.

So you are using squid via smooth wall .. It is so easy.. Whatever I say is mostly to edit squid.conf file. And in smoothwall you have to edit  at /var/smoothwall/proxy/acl then restart the proxy via the webmin to rewrite the updated squid.conf.

Hope you understand .
