[squid-users] Newbie question - Can anyone help with denied access

List,

thanks for help in advance. I have read a lot of documents and have setup
my Squid 2.5 STABLE1 server according to a detailed document, I did find
differences in the location of the Squid binaries and files on my RH9
installation of Squid. The Squid server daemon starts fine when I run the
following as root from the bash prompt:

squid -N -d 1 -D

When I try to access the web page from a standard NT Windows 2000 machine
using Internet Explorer 5.0 I get the following error message from my Linux
Squid server:

-----------------------------------------------START Error Message Below

ERROR

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.com/

The following error was encountered:
      Access Denied.

      Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed

      is incorrect.

perms??
