Why are you using public IPs on your internal client machines?

Are you running any services on those machines which need to be accessed from 
the Internet (ie: they're not just clients, they're servers too)?

I'm rather amazed that any ISP these days would assign you a public /24 
without a very good reason.

I would say it's a bad idea, both from a security point of view (yours), and 
also from a net friendliness point of view (you're using up a /24 which other 
people are desperately tryng to get for good reasons).


However, getting back to the Squid setup, Squid doesn't care whether the IPs 
assigned to your "client" machines are public or private.

You define the local network range which Squid is supposed to accept requests 
from, and that's that - there's no difference between public and private IPs.


So, tell us what setup you had working with private IPs (ie: show us your 
squid.conf without comments or blank lines), and then tell us what changes you 
made to accommodate the public address range, and tell us what's not now 
working.
