Hi Sandeep: For your project titled 'web based manager for SQUID', I would suggest using SQLite instead of MySQL server.
SQUID is a very fast proxy server and the user information maintained in SQLite can be accessed very quickly. A good overview of SQLite is available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLite SQLite is faster than traditional client/server RDMBS Take a look at http://www.sqlite.org/ Instead of reading the book, I would suggest trying to install the RPM and configure it. Read the documentation and ask questions. That will be the fasted way to ramp on SQLite. thanks Saifi.
