[squid-users] Beginners Question: First Configuration Squid on Firewall host

Hello.
My very first attempt with Squid was halfway a success and failure;),
When I try to open a www page, I get the following error:

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.amazon.de/
The following error was encountered:
        • Forwarding Denied.
  This cache will not forward your request because it is trying to
enforce a sibling relationship. Perhaps the client at 192.168.2.4 is a
cache which has been misconfigured.

If someone would be so nice to have a look at my config file to help me
with the first start, it would be nice.

Squid runs on a linux host with Firewall and DSL (PPPoE) connection
which gets its IP by DHCP.
It has 3 Nics, one for the PPPoE, a second for an internal subnet which
has an additional NAT Router in between
and a third nic for the DMZ but on this subnet I get a simple timeout
when opening a www page.

I would be glad if I could get at least my non-DMZ subnet connected to
the internet, the DMZ subnet then will be similar. Later on I will try
to configure squid as reverse proxy, becourse I have a pgsql database
on the internet which I wasn't able to secure by chrooting so a reverse
proxying squid would help me preventing keeping intrusion attempts out.

So my network looks like this:
Workstation -- (192.168.1.3)NAT-Router (192.168.2.4) --
(192.168.2.199)LinuxHost -- DSL

I paste the Network section of my config file:

Thank you very much for any help!
