William,

The 0.0.0.0 is usually normal.  It means that the service will accept
requests on any network interface.  A sort of global listen on all
interfaces.

Some system administrators will say this is BAD practice, but, it really
depends on your network setup as to how you may want to restrict access
to squid.  One good example, you may want to restrict access to a
specific network card (IP address/range) so sales people can get squid
access, but the engineering department (on another network/IP
address/range) to get no squid access.  And of course, the network card
attached to the outside Internet to have no squid access (this prevents
people from using your server as a caching jumping point for junk web
sites).

Even with all this, your iptables setup will also effect squid.

Thanks,
James Kosin
