[plug] Squid error 113 no route to host

[Paul Baumgarten]

I am seeking enlightenment on the meaning, cause and resolution of squid
generated error 113 - No route to host.

Due to the fact that it mainly occurs during busy periods, such as if I have
a big download happening, I think it has something to do with squid coping
under load... maybe some sort of time out issue or some other such issue.

If anyone knows of the cause of this and how I can resolve it I would
appreciate hearing about it as the Squid FAQ doesn't mention a word about
it.
