Hello,

You're right, the squid package is on the list of core packages [1]. You can quickly check it by entering the "rpm -q squid" command. See the Squid chapter in the RHEL7 Networking Guide [2] for more information.

Hope that helps, --Mirek

Thanks Mirek Jahoda for the prompt response [root@localhost ~]# rpm -q squid package squid is not installed

this is my result when I typed yum install squid

Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager This system is not registered with an entitlement server. You can use subscription-manager to register. There are no enabled repos. Run "yum repolist all" to see the repos you have. To enable Red Hat Subscription Management repositories: subscription-manager repos --enable To enable custom repositories: yum-config-manager --enable

Hi,

In order to use RHEL 7.5 you have to register your system first and attach a valid subscripton via subscription-manager. See manpage subscription-manager(8) for more details.

After you have attached a valid subscription the repos should be activated to install squid.

Hi Osman,

In addition to Jörg's advice ... here are the commands :

sudo subscription-manager register
sudo subscription-manager refresh
sudo subscription-manager attach --auto

Then update the repos, execute sudo yum update. :)

Regards,
Christian
