As I understand it Squid has it's own internal DNS cache, which is enabled by default unless you compile Squid with the --without-internal-dns flag.
The cache is always there. This flag only selects the older "dnsserver" approach of making concurrent DNS lookups to your DNS server.
How can I see that the DNS caching is running?
cachemgr has some info on the DNS cache hit ratio.
Is squid still using the daemon/application "dnsserver" which usually is located in /usr/lib/squid ? (the file is nowhere to be found)
Not unless your Squid is built with --without-internal-dns.
Are there any settings for squid.conf for the internal DNS caching? I wasn't able to find any.
Look for ipcache.
