I have finally got the Squid-2.6.STABLE7  working under Cygwin.

While sieving through the previous posts in my mails. While doing so
it struck my mind that Squid on Cygwin might be requesting the Bofi's
Squid (Running on this SAME machine) (I go the Hint from the line :
"*connection to Failed " in the error message that my browser gave).

So, I configured Squid running under Cygwin to use the Bofi's Squid as
Parent Cache as follows;

# Set the relationship to a parent, and don't bother with ICP queries
cache_peer 192.168.x.x parent 8080 3130 proxy-only no-query
# Make sure ALL requests pass through parent
never_direct allow all

My requirement was to use two Squids in Parent-Child relationship on
the same machine. This is achieved.

But, I am surprised by this behaviour of Squid. Because on another
machine on which a WindowsNT port of Acme Consulting and Cygwin port
of Squid was running, both could work independently, and is still
working (It is a P-III) machine.

Could someone please suggest why can't my Squid under Cygwin succeed
direct connection to the Internet? Why it tries to find a Parent Cache
when it is not configured to do so?

I am trying to run another copy of Squid under Cygwin on the same machine.

Under Cygwin with squid-2.6.STABLE7, I am getting the following error
in my cache.log;

commSetNoLinger: FD 10: (109) Protocol not available

In the browser, the error is:

The following error was encountered:
    * Connection to Failed
The system returned:
    (111) Connection refused
The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

Do I need to apply some patch?

Please help.
