Yes. > I'm concerned about security and also on budget. Recommendations: Make sure the firewall protects itself and does not allow untrusted connections to the Squid ports (tcp3128,udp3130,udp3401,udp4827) no matter what your Squid acls says, and make use of the chroot_dir directive in squid.conf to try to isolate Squid from the host...
