NOTE
It is worth pointing out that the purpose of this book is to test your knowledge and not serve as a reference guide. Most of the exercises are fairly straightforward and self-explanatory, but this one is a bit more complex. Do not be afraid to use online help and other resources at your disposal to fill in any gaps in your knowledge.
4.
After exiting the configuration file, restart the server at a terminal window with the command rcsquid start.
