But it's very strange that it works with the localhost entry (localhost 1.1.1.1) and if i change the cache_peer entry in squid.conf it will not work. Here the entries from cache.log: ... | TCP connection to 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1:3128) failed Detected DEAD Parent: 1.1.1.1 | TCP connection to 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1.1:3128) failed | temporary disabling (Gateway Time-out) digest from 1.1.1.1 TCP connection to 1.1.1.1 (7.21.32.137:3128) failed ... (I changed the real IP for this post to 1.1.1.1)
