      @IT-ADMIN where is the log file exactly because i checked in this file /var/squid/logs/access.log but it doesn't show any thing about the service status

      The access log is the log of what Squid has allowed. If Squid is not running, there is no process to write to that log. That log will never show anything about Squid's behaviour. You need to look at the system logs to see why a process is not starting properly.

              Try the following commands:

              kill -15 squid
              service squid start

                                  Obviously you aren't a Trekkie. Also, Mr. is considered extremely formal and most people don't use Mr. in every day speech. I'm sure Scott would be just fine. for @scottalanmiller .

                                        just for knowledge sake, you also rarely use Mr with someone's first name. Instead it would be Mr Miller, or the whole name - Mr Scott Miller ( Mr Scott Allen Miller).

                                        Now, all of this said - some people have their own schtick (way of being), so you could decide that you always want to refer to people as Mr Firstname, So.... Mr Scott, Mr Dash, Mr AJ, etc.

                                          I agree also that you don't normally do Mr. FirstName. However, that's common to see in a lot of non-native English speakers. No offense.

                                            I wonder, is that due to the fact that in some cultures they last name is first, therefore they would still be following the convention Mr Lastname?
