persistent forwarding loop

I have a child cache (Squid-2.3Stable1) and a parent cache (Squid-2.2Stable5).
The child cache has never_direct allow all, and the parent cache as a parent.

Both caches were compiled with --enable-digest, but the child cache is
unable to fetch the digests from the parent: every time I get

I have checked and rechecked the configuration file for the parent and I don't
see any lines where it could be refering to itself. I tried looking for the
hostname as well as for the IP number, but couldn't find anything suspicious.

I tried setting the parent cache as sibling, but that just made it impossible
to fecth _anything_ (as the comment in the configuration file suggests).
I tried removing the never_direct in the child, but that didn't help either.

Could someone tell me what else I can check in the parent's or the child's
configuration file?
