Code:

     <internet>
          |
          |
{<Squid Proxy1 eth0> <192.168.1.1 eth1> }
                        |
                        |
              { <Squid proxy2 eth0> <192.168.2.1 eth1> }
                                           |
                                           |
                                       <client>
                                   (must use proxy  
                                 server 192.168.2.1:80)

The client now is using the the proxy setting
(192.168.1.1:80) to access internet. but my aim is i want to to use the setting 192.168.2.1:80 which is the second proxy server(squid) but it does not return any internet access. i have config the squid.conf(on second server) to allow all client to connect. what configuration will i do to the second proxy server to be act a real proxy server to the client. hope you can help me solve this problem. thanks in advance..

So in your case u need something to route the trafic from your secondary proxy to your primary proxy, because both of your proxy is a totally different network so you need to configure a router that maybe can be a hardware or a software

no my first proxy and the second proxy are in the same network. but the second proxy has 2 NICs the 1st is connect to the first proxy and the second NIC to the client(that needs internet)

-the two proxy servers are same network (1st proxy)192.168.1.1 and (second)192.168.1.2

-the 3rd pc the client is 192.168.2.1

please see the GIF image Diagram above

If i were you I would have done something like this.
In the second proxy i.e 192.168.2.1
I would have typed
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
Thats It. But that is a speculation. Give more info such as
1) Is the first proxy is connected directly to the internet
2) Is the first proxy acts as a NAT gateway
3) does it allow IPforwarding.

yah i have add its default gateway to 192.168.1.1 on the second proxy..

btw when i use the 192.168.1.1:80 on the third pc the(Client PC). it works and it has internet. but i want the i will be using 192.168.2.1 as its proxy server (the second proxy server.) because the second will be use less if i'll go directly to the 1st proxy server..

1) Is the first proxy is connected directly to the internet? yes it is. its http port is 80. and ip 192.168.1.1

it also allow ip forwarding.

and it does not acts as a nat.
