Dear All, I've installed squid 2.6 installed on my ubuntu8.0.4 server. I'm getting errors like attached one frequently. It says, "Unable to determine the IP address from host name "anything", but after some time say even after 5 mins the same page / site opens. I'm not able to figure out why is this happening. The error appears for any domain & is not particular to any domain. Can anyone help me out in this. I'm not able to bring the server in live mode due to this problem. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Error Message: The requested URL could not be retrieved. While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.squidguard.org/Doc/install.html The following error was encountered: Unable to determine IP address from the host name for www.squidguard.org The dnsserver returned: Refused: The name server refuses to perform the specified operation. This means that: The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. Check if the address is correct. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks & Regards, Sameer Shinde.
