LUSCA Automated Install Scriptt

---

 

Following is an automated script to install LUSCA r14942 for UBUNTU with aggressive content caching support including some video web sites like YOUTUBE and few others as described in my other article @
https://aacable.wordpress.com/2014/04/21/howto-cache-youtube-with-squid-lusca-and-bypass-cached-videos-from-mikrotik-queue/

I will add more n more functions as soon as I get some free time, like configurable options via choice menu like cache size, mem, and other variables.

---

 

SCRIPT FUNCTIONS . . . 

This script will do the following

• Update Ubuntu
• Install some components required for Compilation of Lusca/Squid package
• Backup squid.conf if already in /etc/squid.conf with squid.conf.old, stop any running squid instance
• Download LUSCA r14942 source package to /temp folder and compile it
• Download squid.conf and storeurl.pl from the internet and place them in /etc/squid.conf
• Create cache directory like in /cache-1 and default cache size is 5 GB
• add squid in /etc/rc.local so it may start auto upon system reboot

Note: You should modify all options in /etc/squid.conf after installation , like cache_dir, cache_mem and others as per your network and hardware specifications.

REQUIREMENTS . . .

1- Fresh Installation of UBUNTU OS and Configure Internet Access
2- root access to execute script
3- REMOVE ANY KIND OF PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED SQUID INSTALLATION IF ANY
4- Upload or create script in any folder of Ubuntu box,

or create new script with following commands

mkdir /temp

ALL DONE.

now execute the script by running

/temp/lusca_install.sh

It will start installation and will show you the progress with all the action its doing [in colored rows, RED color shows error, Green Color shows Ok/INFO].

TIP:

To start SQUID Server in Debug mode, to check any errors, use following

squid -d1n

if squid is successfully started , you can see its process via PS command

ps aux |grep squid

as showed in the image below …
