Looking for some help with a system setup

Its a remote location, with limited resources and the only type of connection is by satellite respectively.

Here's the specifications:

Two satellites - Two 4 MB / 512. Contention Rates of 10:1

Dual wan router - Draytek

Gateway server - looking to have a reverse proxy, with traffic flow control software. limited resources so I have to use SquidNT. I do have software available which I intend to use to make it transparent to users.

What I would like to do is be able to cache multiple websites and have them accelerated after first time view. Looking for examples on how to config SquidNT or the appropriate steps in setting up such a server. If need be, i can run multiple instances of squid to achieve this, kind of hoping that the conf file can address multiple websites. If someone has a copy of something similar to this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Server Specs: Windows Server 2003
2.8 GHz Processor - Intel Pentium 4 800 FSB
4 GB RAM - DDR 400
1 TB storage - Hotswap and Raid configured
Two ethernet ports. - 10/100 and 10/100/1000

The Purpose: To provide Internet Access better than what the locals are providing to approximately 100 Military Members for a reasonable price.
