Question dansguardian, squid, and parent proxy


I would like to have Dansguardian installed on both the server and on client machines, so that each machine keeps its own log of user activity while the server does the actual blocking. On Windows I usually use Verity which doesn't work on proxies so it's easy to make use of the the Dansguardian proxy. However, Dansguardian works on a local proxy. Is it possible to set up the local proxy to connect to a parent proxy? I have squid installed on both sides.

This is probably a noob question. I feel it should be easy but nothing I have tried has worked.
I added these lines to my squid.conf but it doesn't seem to make a difference:

Code:
cache_peer [my proxy IP address] parent 8080 0 no-query no-digest
never_direct allow all
Obviously I put the IP address in where it says [my proxy IP address]. I'm not THAT much of a noob.

Thank you all for being helpful.

Nevermind. I just restarted the squid service and it works fine now.
It's always the little things we forget...
