I'm quite new to configuring squid, but I have a squid running with
on parent cache as proxy-only. The Cache_dir is defined as

        cache_dir /opt/squid-2.1/cache 1 1 1

And there are these direct statement:

        always_direct deny all
        never_direct allow all

I hoped this way to get a squid, that is functioning only as a
proxy without or minimal caching. This one is running on the inside
of our firewall, where the parent is running on the outside and doing
the real caching.

Is there something wrong with this configuration?
