I'm using MRTG 2.9-17 on an Windows 2000 system and Squid 2.3 STABLE 5 for NT.

The Squid related things on my mrtg.conf are:

I enabled only two chart to test if SNMP is working, but there are many
counters that cab be read.
Please note that the squid.mib file is the mib.txt file located on
squid\etc directory.

squid.conf configuration:

acl snmppublic snmp_community public
snmp_port 3401
snmp_access allow snmppublic all
snmp_incoming_address 0.0.0.0
snmp_outgoing_address 0.0.0.0

Don't forget to configure and compile with --enable-snmp option ....

Hoping to help You.
