Sorry, what do you mean by "IP access"?
I assume both Squid servers have IP addresses.
Do you mean that only one of them has connectivity to the Internet?
What do you mean by "the other one has users"?
Is it doing some sort of authentication, or do you simply mean that this is
the one the users have connectivity to, so that your network arrangement is:
users -> Squid box 1 -> Squid box 2 -> router -> Internet
...and that the users cannot connect to Squid box 2, and Squid box 1 cannot
connect to the Internet.
Is that a reasonable description of your setup?

I don't think I uderstand that bit.

Please define "balance"?

Okay, so the two machines have DNS A records for different hostnames.

Why can't you do a multiple A record?
There's nothing wrong with:
proxy.blabla.lan A 192.168.38.56
squid.blabla.lan A 192.168.38.73
example.blabla.lan A 192.168.38.56
A 192.168.38.73
So that example.blabla.lan points to both IP addresses.

No, you are not allowed to have a CNAME in DNS as well as any other record (A,
MX, NS, etc). If something is a CNAME, it cannot also be anything else.

I think you're doing okay, but please clarify the things requested above :)
Also, please simply tell us: what are you trying to achieve? It's often the
case that someone is trying to solve a problem, thinks of a possible solution,
and asks on a mailing list such as this for help in implementing the
solutions, when there is actually a far better / simpler solution to the
problem available. However, because the problem itself was not stated, nobody
can propose the better / simpler solution, and everyone just works towards
making the poorer solution work somehow or other...
