Yes.. which is another way of saying that in most situations where you need Squid to use specific addresses you should only set the incoming.. > Outgoing using the same socket as incoming is fine with me, so I tried: > udp_incoming_address 192.168.17.11 > udp_outgoing_address 255.255.255.255 > But my siblings won't talk.

Odd.. Which Squid version? Squid should not even start with ICP enabled and incoming & outgoing set to the same address... > I understand incoming has to listen on a specific port but why would outgoing use this and only this same specific port...? > What am I getting wrong? You are correct that outgoing ICP could in theory use a random port, but most people like to see it using a fixed port for firewalling reasons so Squid uses the same port number for both.
