I guess you want something akin to Postfix's smtp_dns_reply_filter but most software doesn't have anything similar. Without code changes, the simplest quick fix may be to add a static 'reject' route to the IPv6 block used by this publisher on the proxy (it could be kept up-to-date by a dns lookup script). That's less of a liability than forcing resolution to a particular IP. _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
