Extracting the Tarball
Extract the Squid Graph tarball file after you have downloaded it. Those with Redhat Linux (or other similar distributions) can do this: -
$ tar -zxvf squid-graph-x.x.tar.gz
Alternatively, those with UNIX-like operating systems can do this: -
$ zcat squid-graph-x.x.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
Gathering the Pre-requisites
As of version 3.0, Squid Graph requires the GD perl module.
You can download it from http://stein.cshl.org/WWW/software/GD/
or you can use the included GD-1.3.3.tar.gz file in the extras/
directory.
Follow the intructions in the GD perl module to get it installed correctly before you proceed.
Compiling
Squid Graph runs out of the box. You don't have to compile it.
Putting it in the Right Place
You might not prefer to have Squid Graph lying around in your current
directory, so you should just move it to a directory which makes sense,
such as /usr/local/squid-graph
. e.g.
$ mv squid-graph-x.x /usr/local/squid-graph
