I've tried doing a host command namely "host intranet" and I get a
correct response. I even tried installing lynx on it and broswing my
intranet server and it works. However squid it self cannot seem to cache
these servers.
I read that squid has some sort of dns client of some sort; is there
some configuration wrong there?
I know that my DNS server works since we can access the intranet server
directly without any problems... This only happens when I configure the
proxy. I'm thinking it might be a configuration thing.

Subject: Cache LAN and VLAN webservers
Hi All,
I was wondering whether it is possible to cache local LAN & DMZ servers...
and have them accessible to VLAN computers.
Basically I my LAN is 192.168.12.0 and the squidbox has an IP from this
subnet. Basically I want to cache our webserver thats on the LAN (same
subnet) and DMZ (192.168.5.0). This will then be used by those who are
connected to our VLAN on the 172.21.100.0 subnet.
Currently squid can't cache servers. When I set my browser to
192.168.128.5 (our intranet server) I get an error It can't locate the
server. It seems to only cache external web (internet). I've read how you're
supposed to set direct_access for local server but lets say I want to cache
local servers. How do I do this. I pasted my squid.conf below. I haven't
really changed much as I'm not too sure about which line needs to be
changed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
