Help Needed: Auto-Configure Proxy Settings via DHCP
At home I run my own DHCP, DNS and Squid proxy. I implemented the proxy because my DSL connection is pretty bad and anything I can do to improve that goes a long way. Now my proxy works fine, but the issue that I’m running into is having it auto-configure the browser(s) on each machine in the house. It doesn’t do me any good to be running a proxy if it doesn’t actually get used.
Can anyone outline for me, or point me to a reliable resource, on how to automagically configure proxy settings via DHCP. I have spent some time googling this but nothing has worked so far. Either the pages I found were out dated or missing information. Basically I would like any browsing within the LAN to go through the proxy. This will include Firefox, Safari and Epiphany browsers.
Thanks in advance.
