In the squid.conf file you should define an ACL for your local domain
and ACL's for sibling hosts.. e.g.
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 # All systems..
acl localnet src 131.211.0.0/255.255.0.0 # ACL for *.ruu.nl
acl hva src 145.92.18.2/255.255.255.255 # Sibling ACL for www.hva.nl

# Define http_access for your local hosts and sibling hosts..
http_access allow localnet
http_access allow hva
http_access deny all

# Reply to all ICP queries we receive
icp_access allow all

# force your neighbors to use you as a sibling instead of a parent.
miss_access allow all !hva

Cheers, Henny
