Dear friends:
I had an episode with smoothwall/squid a couple days ago. The network 
was acting weird,  some urls went throug fine while others would not do 
anything. Literally,  I had no problem with google,  yet cnn.com did not 
  reach and it gave a DNS error.

I for a day or so I  thought there was a big network problem somewhere, 
however, after that I decided to test the systems with a different DNS 
and to my surprise everything was working just fine. I looked at the 
logs of the firewall/proxy and did not see anything. I decided to reboot 
ther server like a windows machine and everything was fixed after that.

I am very curious to know what happened there. I am not familiar with 
squid or any proxy server for that matter. I  am certain that that was 
the problem because of all the tests I did. could any one tell me wassup 
with that?

Thanks,


Alvaro Zuniga
