Be sure that your peers use the same host name that you use internally.
Your peer might think that you are palo7.pacific.net.sg, while your Squid
believes it is "10.0.0.1" or localhost or palo.pacific.net.sg or something.
Due to some internal restrictions (not specific to cache digests) peers
must use the host name that matches server's idea of its host name. In most
cases, the "internal" name will be just the regular and "obvious" FQDN, but
there are exceptions.

You may want to contact your peers and check that they use the correct name
in their squid.conf files. You can adjust your cache name using
unique_hostname and/or visible_hostname options.
