Prevent the kids from going to inappropriate sites. So I tried Squid w SquidGuard with Webmin but have not been able t oget it working. amongst the many errors is "squid failed init_cache_dir /var/spool/squid failed".

What do the log files say?

 	/var/log/squid/cache.log
 	/var/log/messages

The squid cache log will usually give you the details of what is going on.

If it is a SELinux issue, you will see "AVC" errors in /var/log/messages.
