Does it read: files dns? DNS is a crucial part of squid and I doubt squid itself is not working in this respect. What probably is happenning (since you tried a restart) is that you are retrieving the URL from your upstream parent. Try changing /etc/hosts in your parents (and restart them) and see if this resolves it. Or disable the parents and retest. Jenny
