Raphael (and the rest of the list),

Thanks - I did further reading and my 'myNet' IP filter specifiers were all
wrong.

Thanks to this list - I had excellent feedback that gives me a very
posative attitude towards the product.

Thanks guys!!

By default the config file is set to deny access to the cache by the lines:
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
http_access deny all

You will need to create an acl and set it to allow. e.g

acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
acl myusers src 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
http_access myusers allow
http_access deny all
