It is as reliable as your peering setup.. If you have peers (parents/siblings) you don't trust then your peering configuration is unreliable and your proxy can not be trusted. Each Squid in a parent/sibling relation MUST have a unique unique_hostname, if not the forwarding loop detection will not work properly. Regards Henrik
