Hello, first thanks for your reply.

Are you talking about multiple-instance article or about configuring
squid with wccp.
If so I've checked them a few days ago. The problem is that I started
both squid's without problems, each listening on different interfaces
(eth0 and eth1)on port 3128, but only one squid i detected by the router.
The first one that is started connects to the router, no matter which
is, the second does not connect.
And the strange thing is that the router wccp informations shows only
one IP, If I start only Squid2 (only eth1) the router shows the IP of eth0.
May be it has something to do with gre tunnel configuration. :(
