Hello we all know that access.log file logs the access Info of Squid, something like that: 125213512.746 41762 192.168.1.17 .............. 125213513.746 47616 192.168.1.18 .............. MY local DNS server has records like this ( in its revers zone (1.168.192.in-addr.arpa)): $TTL 60 ; 1 minute 17 PTR Mark 18 PTR Mike I have managed to make this record in the access.log file (using the option "log_fqdn on" and by changing the log format): 125213512.746 41762 192.168.1.17 .............. to be something like that: 125213512.746 41762 192.168.1.17 Mark .............. the problem is that the DNS records keep changing ( something like that ): $TTL 60 ; 1 minute 17 PTR Karl 18 PTR Mike and $TTL 60 ; 1 minute 17 PTR Paul 18 PTR Mike and so on ...... but the squid keep resolving the IP as "Mark", so I guess that Squid use the cached look up so what ever "Mark" change in DNS zone it keeps it "Mark" My questions are: 1) what is the option who makes Squid cache looks up ? 2) how to stop this option and make Squid keeps ask the DNS and ignore the cache looks up?
