Nope; two problems with append_domain: - It can be used with only one suffix; not five. - It won't work for dotted, non-FQDN addresses, like www.leon.leon Any other ideas out there? By the way, I moved Squid over to a Windows Server 2003 box in the name of server consolidation. :-) Thanks Matt Hohmeister Technology Coordinator Leon High School 550 E.
