Could be the case.  Have a look in syslog for any error messages.  What
happens if you run squid manually from the command line?

I want squid to run with uid `nobody', so this is what I have in
rc.local:

su -l nobody -c "/opt/squid/bin/squid -Ds" &

`-D' tells squid to skip the DNS tests on startup.  I do this because
     our internet link probably isn't up yet.
`-s' tells squid to send debug level 0 messages to syslog.


Cheers,

John
