I should've provided more information. It was late and I was half
asleep. Sorry. Here it is:

I am able to start it manually and use it. For example, I am using it
right now to access my gmail.com webmail account, but it didn't start
automatically at boot; I had to start it manually. Therefore, it is
configured correctly and works. It just won't start automatically on
boot.

If squid_enable="YES" (mind the case), then it won't start manually either.

Can anyone help me force squid to start on boot like sshd does?

Regards,

Mark
