Consider the following configuration...

"dst" is not a good idea. Any phisher attacker who wants to make their website resolve to your servers internal IP can do so and connect through this proxy to it.

"dstdomain" is the recomended ACL type. That way the domain is accepted or denied. The client can only reach Squid by resolving the domain IP as this Squid box, so no security worries there. It also lets you scale out the backend with any number of servers or peers, and swap them about without involving DNS alterations (think TTL lag on every change).

http_port 80 accel defaultsite=host1.dom.com vhost
cache_peer 192.168.1.42 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=host1server
never_direct allow host1
http_access allow host1
cache_peer_access host1server allow host1
cache_peer_access host1server deny all

This is a case of forwarding requests internal server without changing header.

What changes would I need to make if I wanted to
a) listen for http://www.maindom.com/host1
b) forward these requests to http://host1.dom.com

Thanks in advance

The proper way to do it is:
* configure the web server at host1.dom.com to accept http://www.maindom.com/host1 and strip it away before interpreting (ie for Apache "Alias ^/host1/(.*) /$1")
 * add www.maindom.com to the accepted domain ACL ("host1").

The hack:
 * write a url_rewrite_program script that does the stripping (awk script?)
 * cross your fingers and hope nobody nasty finds a way around it.
