Squid Concurrent User Limit

Hello.
Is it possible to limit the amount of concurrent users using the Squid proxy server?
I ask because we have a 64k ISDN dialup connection and realistically you cannot share this between 10-20 people at the same time. I would like to limit it to 5 users on a first come first server basis.

Squid.conf file is your answer.
Look for this section in you squid.conf file 'OPTIONS WHICH AFFECT THE NEIGHBOR SELECTION ALGORITHM'. This will allow you to specify the usage of 'use max-conn' this will allow you limit the amount of connections squid may open.
