That appears to be correct. Default gateway for Squid - your IP router, it
must NAT for Squid to get out of course. Make sure this works first.

Then if you want the clients to surf they either set proxy manually
(probably the best bet for so few clients) or if you want you can make
Squid be an interception proxy, see the FAQ.

Enable ip forwarding on the Linux box too, /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
or something similar, check the Linux Routing HOW-TO
