Yes, that is right.

Thank you for your prompt reply. It works like charm, except tt I cld nt
access some sites.

Some questions however.

Now, I have 2 ISPs (A and B) whose proxies are mutually exclusive of
each other. Every time, whenever I use this configuration, as u offer,
ISP A would deny me of using B's proxy, and so i hv to to reconfigure
squid.

And, if i use ISP B, it wld deny me of A's proxy. What should I do
without hassling with going thru the reconfiguration?

Thanx alot

Looking forward to your replies once again.
