That is what I am saying - from Squid's perspective, internal DNS is the request for a name look-up being sent via the '/etc/resolv.conf', basically, to some name server running on UDP service 53. > what you refer to is a situation whereby one doesnot > want to rely on the internal squid cache proces, Let's not confuse things - internal squid "cache" is orthogonal to internal squid "look-up". > and > use external DNS lookups,with the dnsserver, that is > when you should use --disable-internal-dns This is true - from Squid's perspective, external name look-ups are through the use of a wrapper program, 'dnsserver' in this case (NOT enabled by default).
