Hi Henrik, I solve the problem. I am using a transparent parent to direct all traffics and cache_peer_access to redirect selected websites to a particular parent. What I did I used cache_peer and cache_peer_access at the same time. I think I cannot use cache_peer and cache_peer_access at the same time or maybe a configure it the wrong way. Anyway thank you very much, everything is working smooth now. Regards, Wennie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Henrik Nordstrom" <henrik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Wennie V.

Squid cannot reach your parent. Verify your cache_peer settings (ip & port) Regards Henrik On tor, 2008-08-21 at 12:29 +0300, Wennie V.
