[squid-users] Cache_Peer Question (Newbie)

Hi;
I must misunderstand something fundamental about cache_peer. Here is my
line in squid.conf:

cache_peer 202.71.106.119 parent 7080 2020 default no-query

What I want to do is configure cache_peer to:
* Receive requests from Pound (which it is...I get a Squid error page)
* Send _all_ requests to port 7080 unless, of course, Squid has a cached
page, which it can then serve.

I have no need of ICP, so I don't know if that "2020" (which is the port
Squid listens on) is necessary. I am perhaps mistaken in assuming that
Squid is the "parent" in this relationship. The error page follows.

TIA,
beno
