[squid-users] Forwarding loop detected issue

Hi all,

I'm new to squid so bare with me. I just setup squid according to these instructions:
http://www.howtoforge.com/dansguardian-with-multi-group-filtering-and-squid-with-ntlm-auth-on-debian-etch-p2

The setup is working but my logs are fill with these errors for every connection:

2009/02/03 17:20:15| WARNING: Forwarding loop detected for:
Client: 127.0.0.1 http_port: 127.0.0.1:3128
GET internal://lis.moonlight.lan/squid-internal-periodic/store_digest HTTP/1.0
Accept: application/cache-digest

Host: 127.0.0.1:8081
Authorization: Basic Kjpub3Bhc3N3b3Jk
Cache-Control: max-age=259200
Connection: Close

I know that these error is because of my cache_peer line iv been searching the web for the
solution of this issue and i tried to separate the configs of the 2 squid instances but wen
i did it the setup stop working.

Does this error will hurt the performance of Squid how can i fix it without breaking the
squi1+DG+squid2 setup?

regards,
