Short answer: yes.

Long[er] answer: All that I had to do was download the newest stable
version of Squid (2.2STABLE1 at the time) and do a make; (I did look at
the Makefile, and reset the default install path) and make install.
cd'ed into the squid dir and ran RunCache (I think there was a setup
option were I had to run the squid binary to setup the cache dir, but
can't pull it out of the brain at the moment [hint: RTFM].) After some
slight proding, I set up a squid_redirect[er] to filter out some of the
more annoying banner adds.

Your milage may vary.

Hello,

Is it possible for me to have a network of 3 computers connecting to the
internet via a squid proxy. and if so, how do i set it up? I have 2 red Hat
linux 5 boxes, one which will have the connection to the internet, & a 95
box. My ISP has dynamic IP's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I use Diald. Does everything you need, including dial on demand.

Also, is there any howto's or similar out there that will help me set up
squid? Does squid come with a man page or howto as well?
TIA

Hi there

I use a program wich checks weather an image is cacheable or not before
fetching it;

It blocks all images without a Date, Last-Modified date or Content-length.
It also blocks images of which the Date == Last-modified date, images with
Expiry date == Date and images wich are very large (> 64 kB works fine for
me).

It dumps all rejected urls in a log file with the reason why it was
rejected.

Regards,
Rob

Hi there

It comes with a very large config file full of comments.
The rest is RTFM of course.
