Thank you very much for your clear explanation. I assume that the same happens
for domain/port/proto/method etc acls ?

> acl pcs src x.x.2.166 x.x.2.167 x.x.2.168 x.x.2.180 x.x.2.181

I have used this suggestion to setup the series of acls that I had previously
set up as individuals acls (approx 50) and it works correctly. Also, it make
the squid.conf easier to read and smaller.

Thanks.
