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
