Squid Proxy ACL's

I'd appreciate a little help with the following scenario, if anyone has
any suggestions.

I just installed the squid proxy server (the NOVM one) and am having a
small problem with the access control lists.

By default, it seems as though anyone can access the proxy server, even
external clients somewhere else out on the Internet, which obviously is
not desirable.

In the squid.conf file, there are two lines:
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255
acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0

I modified them accordingly to what I thought would be applicable to our
(class C) network:
acl localhost src 203.33.6.1/203.33.6.255
acl all src 203.33.6.1/203.33.6.255

This didn't work. All I seemed to end up doing here was blocking access
for everyone to the proxy server!

The documentation, including the stuff at squid.nlanr.net doesn't seem to
cover this. Does anyone have any idea how the ACL's should be setup here
in order to limit access to 203.33.6.1 - 203.33.6.255? Alternatively,
pointers to any online documentation would be well appreciated as well!
