      I'm faced with with an odd issue I can not explain. After having setup the Squid Reverse Proxy in pfSense, 1 of the 2 mappings I've setup keeps alternating between destinations, while the other mapping consistently goes to the correct destination.

      Both mappings are identical (as far as I can tell):


      I cannot explain why http://skami.steuff.net keeps alternating between the two different webservers. There is no load balancing involved.
      As for the bonus confusion whenever I do a cache refresh the page it seems to stay on the same webserver.
      Any help would be greatly appreciated.

          i know its been a while but i'll post my experience for future reference.

          i had the same issue for quite some time and i solved it by making sure no peer (web server) had spaces on the names, i switches all the spaces to underscores and it was solved.

          i can see you have a web server called "Win7 Test" … change that to "Win7_test" and that should do the trick. (at least it did it for me)

          i hope it can solve the issue for at least some of you guys.

          cheers.
