Have a local instance of BIND (or djbdns or > dnsmasq) which uses the upstream name server as a forwarder. although some people on bind-users discouraged others from using forwarders on BIND, imho it's still better to use local copy of BIND server for resolving of not just squid but all users and services. Bind is better if you have some local domains, use local IPs (and they have reverse lookups). Bind should be configured to answer all private, local (rfc 1918 and rfc3330) IP ranges no matter if you use them. I recommend using local BIND :) -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
