using squid 2.6.STABLE18 on ubuntu i have an old internal webserver at x.y.82.15 that needs to go away. the new internal webserver is at x.y.82.11 i've changed the /etc/hosts file to point to the new address but my clients keep getting content from the old webserver from squid. on the squid server i can ping the hostname ourcompany.web and it correctly resolves to x.y.82.11 on the squid server (using itself as a proxy) i can connect to http://ourcompany.web and it pulls content from the correct webserver. however clients still get the old server. they are xp clients and they have no hostname configured and ourcompany.web does not resolve thru dns. i did "sudo grep -r x.y.82.15 /etc/*" just to see if there was some other hosts mapping somewhere and it did turn up "/etc/hosts~" with x.y.82.15 but i fixed that one, restarted squid and no luck and then i restarted the server and still nothing (can anyone tell me what that /etc/hosts~ file is???) i suspected the old site was getting cached out but i dont think im even using caching but please correct me if im wrong /etc/hosts & etc/squid/squid.conf below .. routable addresses have been masked. if im overlooking something stupid please feel free to berate me. thanks for any help! ************************************** 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 proxy01 x.y.82.11 ourcompany.web # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts ************************************** acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl SSL_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl purge method PURGE acl CONNECT method CONNECT acl 82.0_network src x.y.82.0/24 acl 81.0_network src x.y.81.0/24 acl loopback src 127.0.0.1 acl 10.193.15_network src 10.193.15.0/24 acl 10.193.16_network src 10.193.16.0/24 acl 10.193.17_network src 10.193.17.0/26 acl blocksites url_regex "/etc/squid/blacklist" acl internal_domain dstdomain .ourcompany.web cache_peer x.y.82.11 parent 80 0 no-query no-digest name=internalA cache_peer_access internalA allow internal_domain cache_peer_access internalA deny all http_access deny blocksites http_access allow loopback http_access allow 82.0_network http_access allow 81.0_network http_access allow 10.193.15_network http_access allow 10.193.16_network http_access allow 10.193.17_network http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access allow purge localhost icp_access allow all http_port 8080 hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? cache deny QUERY refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl apache rep_header Server ^Apache broken_vary_encoding allow apache extension_methods REPORT MERGE MKACTIVITY CHECKOUT visible_hostname proxy01 hosts_file /etc/hosts coredump_dir /var/spool/squid
