Using AppleTV as a squid proxy server

Hi,

How do I setup Apple TV as a squid proxy server.

My Apple TV is always on, and I'd like to use it as a proxy.

Cheers,
Christian

First you've to download squid's mac os install package. Copy it over to your ATV and use the terminal command "installer" to install it, eg: sudo installer -pkg squid.pkg -target /

Maybe it's possible to just copy over an *.app file and run it with the terminal command "open". To configure the app, it might be necessary to quit Finder/Backrow to see the desktop.
You can use nitotv's "app launching" capability.
