tar -xvf db-2.7.7.tar

cd /db-2.7.7/build_unix/

4. And afterwards enter the following commands:

    ../dist/configure
    make
    make test
    make install

5. After the Berkeley DB is installed then we need to install squid guard

gzip -d squidGuard-1.2.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf squidGuard-1.2.0.tar

6. Then move into the directory

cd squidGuard-1.2.0

7. And run in the installation files

make
make install
