First thing to figure out is if this is a Squid problem or a networking problem. Step 1: Try to telnet to the IP and TCP port that Squid runs on. If you get a connection, type "HEAD" and hit enter twice. You should get an error message from Squid that starts like this: HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request Server: squid/[version] Step 2: Use both ping and the Squid client to see if you can connect to the Internet. If either step 1 or 2 fails, then this probably isn't a Squid problem. If both Step 1 and 2 succeed, then check your Squid acls - especially any that control access by source IP address. Adam
