It's probably not important to the question (although that's a guess on my part), but what's a "VZW FIOS" link?

Please answer the following questions: 1. How many squid servers do you have (in this setup)? 2. What are their IP addresses? 3. How are they arranged (in some sort of hierarchy or peer arrangement)? 4. Why do you have more than one squid server - what are you trying to achieve by this? 5. What problem do you encounter that you're asking for help with? 6. Can you give us any other additional information which might help us to understand what you're dealing with and what's going on? > Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. Thanks for taking the time to give us some more information :) Antony. -- I think broken pencils are pointless.
