Sincerely I do not know how to mark a home server as 'dead'. 

The only way is response_window = 5   ('dead' after five seconds, I think).

 

See my new proxy.conf

        type = auth+acct
        ipaddr = 1.2.3.4
        port = 1812

        require_message_authenticator = no
        response_window = 5
        zombie_period = 30
