Did you get this Problem solved ? I have the same thing here:

cache.log:
98/01/15 18:58:13| Configuring Parent 111.90.3.100/8080/3129
98/01/15 18:58:13| Configuring Parent proxy3.fth.sbs.de/81/7

squid.conf:
cache_host 111.90.3.100 parent 8080 3129 no-query round-robin
cache_host proxy3.fth.sbs.de parent 81 7 no-query round-robin

But it only connects FIRST_UP_PARENT/111.90.3.100. As soon as I remove
the line cache_host 111.90.3.100... I get ROUNDROBIN_PARENT/proxy3.fth.sbs.de
in my logfile. Of course it is the only ROUNDROBIN_PARENT, but at least it
says, that it uses round robin.
Hmm .. I read the Hierarchy-Tutorial, but I can't see any error in
the config file.

Thanx, Rainer
