beats me. Anyway, config stuff should go in /etc/sysconfig, period ;-)
; we should not be touching the init scripts. The init scripts source
the files in /etc/sysconfig/*

ha, squid_kerb_ldap is not a proxy, it is an authenticator for squid
and what it does is verify the group membership of the users so you
can build ACLs based on that.

squidguard is nice. I like privoxy too ;-)
