Accessing Squid Proxy server from outside my network
by SpiridonG from LinuxQuestions.org on (#52VVW)
Hello together,
First I want to apology , but I am beginner in networking and Linux commands.
Second , I have the following situation : I want to create a Proxy server using Squid.
I have a Raspberry Pi 3 and until now I installed Squid and configured it ( a minimal configuration ). I managed to create a user and passwd . From what I see the server works because if I try to use my PC with the proxy credentials, it asks for User and Password and if they are correct I can surf the web. But both Raspberry and PC are on the same network.
The problem appears if I connect the Raspberry board to my phone (SIM internet access) or when I asked a friend to use the proxy. If I am trying to set the proxy settings in my PC using the Raspberry IP , it seems that the server is not reachable.
I tried to create an ACL with the IP of my PC and allow access to that ACL but still not reachable.
I thinks there is a certain settings that I need to do in the config file for the Proxy server to be visible from outside my network. Can anyone please provide me a clue where should i check/change ?
Thank you in advance,
G
