Hi,
I have a PoC of 2 Squids. One act as Parent and the other as Child.

A "Proof of Concept" for using two Squids?

I believe those experiments were completed successfully proving that two caches could talk to each other back in the 1980's.

What does that acronym mean to you?

I tested a website that Parent will cause browser (directly configured
to use Parent as proxy) to received connection reset. Other web pages
are passed and viewed normally.
When I tried to chain Child to Parent, and the browser (configured to
use Child), the browser hung on the 'reset' page until "The requested
URL could not be retrieved". Other normal pages are retrieved and
viewed fine.

Browser --> Child --> Parent --> 'reset' Site
(http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar_com.zip)  = hung-then-failed.
Browser --> Parent --> 'reset' Site
(http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar_com.zip) = immediate received
conn reset view.

How can I configure the Child to see what the Parent see?
By the way, I am using a malware/AV scan engine on the Parent OS, thus
the conn reset when chanced bad sites/pages e.g. EICAR test.
thanks,
James Tan

Is that AV scanner being used by the parent Squid to test file data on arrival before they are indexed and passed around? or is it being used to scan the cache directory and corrupt the parent Squid index by removing or worse 'cleaning' cached files?
