Squid is THE proxy server. I had installed squid on a debian server in
my college. Now I have passed out, but I guess the server is still
running. It served about 200 users. Had authentication. Did caching.
Performance was awesome. You can set filter rules. It is VERY
flexible. Also I had used SquidGuard as a redirector to filter porn.

I would suggest you ubuntu-server as the distribution.
