Hi All, I have read the FAQ's and tried different cache_peer options to stop DNS lookups on the child proxy but no luck. I tried cache_peer 172.26.x.x parent 3128 0 no-query proxy-only acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 never_direct allow all Still the child proxy is doing DNS looks before it sends the client's request to parent proxy.
