Is the firewall between the clients and Squid, between Squid and the Internet, or do you have both? Can you do a simple Ping test from a client machine to the Squid server (and get replies)? Can you do the same from the Squid server to some Internet-based web server (making sure it's one which replies to pings - some machines are badly configured and don't do this). > My squid access log is saying: TCP_MISS/503. I'm sure it says a lot more than that, but at least it's an indication that your client is getting the request through to Squid okay. Assuming the Ping test from Squid to an Internet web server works, what happens if you try wget, lynx, curl or even telnet to port 80, from the Squid server to some external web server? Does it indicate that the Squid server has "Internet access"? Antony. -- Programming is a Dark Art, and it will always be.
