Excellent append_domain .domain.tld Worked! I also read that I should possible compile squid with --disable-internal-dns and configuring "dns_defnames on" in squid.conf. Would this be faster then using the internal dns resolver?

If I put the fqdn in, it works fine. Is there any way to rectify this in the squid configuration? Squid uses the contents of /etc/resolv.conf for resolving names and this file includes the search and domain directives. > Check the : append_domain directive in squid.conf.default ; read all the comments.
