ok, now i have something running, but still i have a problem, please take a look
at the following configuration:

http_port 8000 accel defaultsite=localhost
cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=srvTomcat
cache_peer_domain srvTomcat subA.domain.com
cache_peer 10.1.1.100 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=srvIIS
cache_peer_domain srviis subB.domain.com

when i request either subA.domain.com or subB.domain.com both call the same
tomcat web server that which is located on the same machine of Squid server,
subB.domain.com it suppose to request the IIS server on machine with
IP 10.1.1.100,
whats wrong with my config?
