Apply for the HOWTO. It will give you the specific information you need to
replace ISA with SQUID.

The author of the ISA replacement info is Mark Taylor. Provision of
services to replace ISA is his professional paid for work. Mark has
written this guidance which I have included in Chapter 11 of "Samba-3 by
Example" - due out March 26th.

The above link should furnish what you are looking for. If you are still
stuck after following that link let me know and I will help you.

Cheers,
John T.
