    I have installed squid 2 in SuSE Linux 6.1. The package of squid comes
along the distribution CD. I am quite new  in this enviorment. I'm facing
problem in configuring Squid version 2 with SUSE 6.1
    Below is the details of the hardware I'm using :
    Compaq PII 400MHz, 128MB RAM, 2x9 GB UW SCSI II HDD
    Now the system is connected through ISDN Zyxel Omni TA128(external)to
    outside net.My dial up is configured & I want to use this server as
gateway
    server & squid as proxy for other clients.
    I have configured the system with my ISP as DNS server,now any attempt
to run
    Squid tried to run the DNS server though -D option is set to bypass the
    initial DNS lookup.
    The excerpt from the cache.log after attempting to start Squid.
    9/08/31 18:52:50| ipcCreate: Failed to create child FD.
    1999/08/31 18:52:50| dnsOpenServers: WARNING: Failed to start
'dnsserver' #2.
    1999/08/31 18:52:50| commBind: Cannot bind socket FD 4 to 127.0.0.1:0:
(99)
    Cannot assign requested address
    I'm not able to understand ,why this "Cannot bind socket ..." error is
coming.
    Any urgent help in this regard will be appreciated.
    Regards
    Jayanta
