[squid-users] connect two squids

hello list,

have two squid-caches which i want to connect. in addition the second should
just give his requests to the first one.
i want to solve the problem without using the icp-protocol.
so i edit some lines in my squid.conf

icp_port 0
cache_peer <IPFIRSTCACHE> parent 80 7
http_access allow all

.. but when i try to connect to a webside, i just get a "the requested URL
could not be recieved.. this request could not forward to to WWW-Server or
parent cache.. reasons could be: - the cache administator don't allow, that
you connect directly to the www-server
    - all parent - caches are not available" (translated from german error
message)

what is my fault?? -> the parent cache is available?! what does he mean with
"direct" connection?

thanks for all in advance

Andreas
