Darn my stupidity. :(   I kept using localhost but it needed the IP of
the server.  I must have been confusing it with some other server I use
(not squid)... 

Thanks for the quick help.  I have documented it properly so I don't
have this brain cramp again.

BTW, I almost had the big titles convinced to try 3 squid proxies to
replace our single Volera.  Since our current SLA allows us multiple ICS
boxes for the same price, I couldn't make the argument about saving
money (I couldn't convince them but I tried).  The one I am running is a
secondary gateway to the internet just for IT people to use (when the
primary internet channel goes down mostly).

Pete
