Are you sure he is on Debian? chkconfig is not a standard binary on
Debian and is mostly used on Redhat based systems. Debian based systems
use rc.d [on Ubuntu you use both rc.d and upstart service]

First make sure you have SRPM's enabled in your repo list, and make sure
you have deb-src enabled in your repo list too (since I can't assume
which OS you have):

If you are on Debian based systems go to /usr/local/src and do:
apt-get source squid3

If you are on Redhat based systems go to /usr/local/src and do:
yum install yum-utils
yumdownloader --source squid
rpm -Uvh squid*.src.rpm

The reason I had you download the source files from the distro you're
using is because they each have an init script that is specifically
designed for that distro [for example ~ I don't believe they use
start-stop-daemon on CentOS] Anyways, you can snag that init script and
copy it to /etc/init.d yourself and then you can do your chkconfig to
add the service to startup.
