right, but you could run one as "master" (operates the cache_dir) and another
one as "slave" (zero cache_dir, will use "master" as parent or neighbour).

Buit the question is, why do you want such configuration. Maybe you could
solve something just by proper configuration of one squid server...

I hope I'm not politically incorrect...
