Not store log. store is just a log of whats been cached on the local machine, not whats proxied in transit. Access.log in native squid format will tell you the source used, and in emulation mode will still show the ICP hits/misses. > > It still never seems to get pages that we know one server has - and > instead always goes to the backend webserver, the parent to get it. > We've worked on this for days now (otherwise I wouldn't send it in) and > we're stumped.

"cache_peer ... proxy-only" prevents local storage, and thus no STORE logged. store.log is naturally a log of only things stored locally. Your squid.conf looks right so its probably getting data from peers but you are looking in the wrong log file. Access.log will show ICP HIT's when a peer provides data. With debugging on the peer selection cache.log will contain a nice graph of the source choices squid has after ACL to show where/why of the source. Amos PS.
