hello squidders :),


i have some problems with my log in squid...

i use squid 3.1.0.16

and my log says:

2010/03/30 16:55:07| comm_udp_sendto: FD 5, (family=10) 192.168.10.4:53: (1) Operation not permitted 2010/03/30 16:55:07| idnsSendQuery: FD 5: sendto: (1) Operation not permitted
This indicates that a firewall blocks the outgoing DNS requests that squid needs to make in order to resolve the hostnames in the incoming queries. Squid normally uses the DNS settings from the operating system (probably in /etc/resolv.conf). It then sends a standard UDP DNS query to the server(s) listed there. If you have an internal and an external server listed there and a firewall blocks access to the first one, it may well be that your setup works after all (because the second request to the external server succeeds) but you still have a setup generating regular error messages (and unneccessary delaying requests).

The fact that a firewall blocks UDP DNS queries to the configured DNS server can be solved in two ways:
a) configure the OS or squid to use only DNS server reachable for squid
b) reconfigure the firewall to allow the necessary requests

Hope this helps,

ps. I would suggest that you restrict posts to one list at a time and that you do not CC your mails to "well known people". We all will try to help but not every case needs to be answered or read by Amos, Henrik et cetera.
