[squid-users] Chaining proxies once more

Hello,

once I´ve posted here a problem in chaining proxies. I have to try another
question because my problem was not solved.

                                         wittenau.ivbb.bund.de
                                             (10.254.182.201)
                                              http+ftp proxy
                                      /
                       wr-linux01
    workstation - 10.15.140.58 (... these both connections are slow)
                        == squid
                                      \
                                         default route
                                         (deny http and ftp by firewall)
                                         10.15.140.1

I was suggested to include the following line into /etc/squid.conf:

  cache_peer wittenau.ivbb.bund.de parent 80 3130 no-digest

I tried squid 2.2.5 from Debian 2.2r3 (potato) and Squid 2.4.1 from
Debian testing (woody) with always the same result. Here is a single
example of the failure:

/var/log/squid/store.log:

/var/log/squid/cache.log:
2001/06/28 08:37:48| Configuring Parent wittenau.ivbb.bund.de/80/3130
2001/06/28 08:38:57| temporary disabling (Bad Request) digest from wittenau.ivbb.bund.de
2001/06/28 08:39:38| Detected DEAD Parent: wittenau.ivbb.bund.de/80/3130

The problem is, that squid doesn't get any usefull information from
the proxy (don't know what squid-internal-dynamic/netdb is???). Instead
it follows the default route and just fails at the firewall. So I
wonder, what options I have to change that squid never follows the
default route to but instead only access the wittenau.ivbb.bund.de proxy.

Kind regards and thanks for your help

         Andreas.
