192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0 is your network address/id - It means squid will work with all your network computers including windows XP.
You need to run all commands as the root user.
Replace
Code:
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0
With
Code:
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255
Add one more acl called lan
Code:
acl lan src 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0
And find line that read as:
Code:
http_access allow localhost
Below that append following line:
Code:
http_access allow lan
Restart squid:
Code:
/etc/init.d/squid restart
See if port 3128 is open or not with following of command (paste output here):
Code:
netstat -vat | grep 3128
If port 3128 is open then you can connect from windows XP to linux squid.
