miss_access is utterly useless unless all peers are Squid 2.2 or later.
There will always be a certain amount of false hits, and when on Squid
2.1 or earlier peer the access denial message generated by miss_access
will be sent to the end user. The recommended use of miss_access untill
all peers is Squid 2.2 or later is to only deny miss access to siblings
which appears to try to use you as a parent. Squid 2.2 siblings will
automatically enforse miss_access deny equivalence on their requests by
using the only-if-cached HTTP option regardless of what your miss_access
is set to.
