Ok.
Squid2 (carp1) http_port 3128 icp_port 3130 cache_peer carp2.mydomain.com sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 8080 0 proxy-only (dansguardian hosts) cache_peer_access 127.0.0.1 allow dansguardian cache_peer_access 127.0.0.1 deny all always_direct allow all
This can't be your running configuration. With this configuration peers won't be used at all as you are forcing all requests going direct via always_direct. With this configuration access.log MUST say DIRECT/xx.xx.xx.xx or cache hits only, never TIMEOUT_* or any peering related tags as peers are excplicitly forbidden to be used.
Again, are you really really sure you are looking into the correct squid.conf file on your Squid2 and Squid3 proxies? Perhaps you have more than one copy..
On squid2 and squid3 I am seeing the timeout_direct message in the access.log.
Nothing else?
You should focus on what Squid2 and Squid3 says when they forward the requests to your Squid1.
In the access.log on squid1 I am not seeing many references to the requests being sent to CARP/carp1.mydomain.com or CARP/carp2.mydomain.com either. Looks like they are all being sent "direct".
So how does they then end up in your two carp parents? You do not have any clients using these from what I understand.
In my test environment I saw most the requests going to "CARP/host.mydomain.com" except the domains I had configured to go always_direct.
Snipet from access.log on squid1: 1102825620.299 105 199.86.18.23 TCP_MISS/200 298 GET http://wisapidata.weatherbug.com/WxAlertIsapi/WxAlertIsapi.dll? - DIRECT/69.25.38.101 text/plain 1102825620.400 0 carp1.mydomain.com TCP_DENIED/403 1474 GET http://wisapidata.weatherbug.com/WxAlertIsapi/WxAlertIsapi.dll? - NONE/- text/html
How did that request end up at carp1.mydomain.com, and what did it say about how it forwarded the reqeust?
