I have been chasing down problems with squid ever since I updated to
v3.3.2. I have found one that looks a lot like a bug with the acl
matching. I have a particular IP address that people here are trying to
access that we cannot access because a cache peer is not selected. I
use cache_peer_access to perform some routing of requests but I have
found in the instance of this particular IP address (not all IP
addresses) that if there are any deny statements in the
cache_peer_access then squid is behaving as though the ACL is matched
even though there is no way it could ever match. I have stripped a test
config down to the barest minimum:

Sorry for obscuring the IP, it is a third party site and I don't know if
they want it advertised. I can supply the address if needed for
debug/testing privately. The weird thing here is the acl foo can in no
way match anything - it certainly has nothing to do with the IP address
at all but we get a reply saying the IP address matched foo and hence
the cache access is denied resulting in no parent being selected.
If I try the same with, say, ftp.netbsd.org using ftp://199.233.217.249/
then the ftp works. I am suspecting squid maybe trying to perform a
reverse lookup on the IP and getting something odd... if I do a dig -x
on the IP I get:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
XX.XX.XX.XX.in-addr.arpa. 81229 IN CNAME 3.0/XX.XX.XX.XX.in-addr.arpa.
which is strange. I can work around this by putting an allow
cache_peer_access that matches the IP prior to any deny statements but,
still, something is not right.
