Hi, The ip address as DNS nameservers are obtained via DHCP from my ISP, these name servers are the same I've specified staticaly for each of my internal boxes. I use the same rules for iptables to set the firewall, but 'nslookup' still sending the same problem, with firewall rules up or not.
Thanx in advance.

Do you have Dynamic IP or static IP for your ADSL connection ? And how is your name server address obtained ? via DHCP or static name server ? Most likely the problem is that the name server used in Squid and/or dansguardian is no longer accessible. Check the nameserver settings. -- Random Quotes From Megas XLR Coop: You see?
