That tells me that the problem is not DNS, then.

Command 2 verifies that DNS resolution is working.

Command 3 results in the problem.

Therefore whatever is causing the problem is not DNS.

when Squid is sending the DNS request, where it is sending it to, and whether 
it gets a response?

Can anyone else shed some light on what this particular message means?
