Is there any Configuration required to connect my clients to the internet through Squid proxy server.Any thing related to dial up is to mentioned in /etc/squid/squid.conf file

it depends on what ip address u assign to ur dial up clients.
if its from the same network group as that of ur office network than its fine.
there is acl in squid.conf and u need to look at it if ur having trouble with some of ur client m/c

no no sir, I will try to explain the problem--------------
I am having a squid machine and some clients are connected to it through RJ 45 network connector..

Now I am having one PABX line(connected to internet).This PABX line I am connecting to the serial port of the Squid machine.

Now in the ACLs in /etc/squid.conf I had given permission to all the clients to access the internet,But they are unable to connect. I want to know is there any thing related to the PABX line is to be mentioned in the Squid machine.
