Squid Proxy Server On Ubuntu 9.04 Server With DansGuardian, ClamAV, And WPAD (Proxy Auto-Detection) This tutorial will demonstrate how to set up a Squid Proxy server on Ubuntu 9.04 Server with DansGuardian (for content filtering) and ClamAV (for Virus scanning); in addition, we will set up Web Proxy AutoDetection (WPAD) through DHCP (in this case, the Windows Server 2003 DHCP server) or DNS so that the only configuration necessary on the client side is to check "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network" in Firefox or Internet Explorer. At the end of the tutorial, users will have a fully functional and secure proxy for HTTP access. in Public bookmarkswith clamavcontentdansguardianfilteringproxyscanningsquidubuntuviruswpad
