I'd leave the hosts_file directive unset (leave it default).

We need to determine why this connection is timing out. Can you ping
each of the hosts from the Squid box?

If so, can you telnet to each of the hosts port 80 (telnet x.y.z.247 80)
from the Squid box?

If so, what is the result of entering "HEAD / HTTP/1.0" and hitting
enter twice?
