Try:

vi /etc/init.d/squid

#!/bin/sh

         echo -n ' Squid '

         case "$1" in
         start)

         /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -D
         ;;
         stop)
         /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k shutdown
         ;;
         restart)
         /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k reconfigure
         ;;
         *)
         echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop|restart}"
         ;;
         esac

Hope that helps.

Thanking you...
