(depends on positive_dns_ttl, and > ipcache_size in relation to your request load) according to original poster, the DNS at his site resolves mail.hoegh.com to 2 addresses. In such case, this is not squid problem. The only problem with his squid is that squid doesn't keep the track of (in)accessible addresses and periodically tries inaccessible one. Note that in case of resolving name to multiple IP addresses, conecting host should try to connect to different hosts by different requests. If one is unreachable, it's good to skip it for a while. However the orioginal problem seems to be at Jan-Peter's site, with resolver sending 2 addresses... -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
