Your squid does not know how to find it's way to the real servers. Two
possible causes here

a) The server the user asked for is not in your /etc/hosts file.

b) You have specified "httpd_accel_host virtual" but not
"httpd_accel_uses_host_header on". Such configuration will make Squid try
to contact it's own IP address all the time as "httpd_accel_host virtual"
tells it to reconstruct the URL using the IP address.

Which of the two is obvious if you look into access.log.

Henrik
