Hi all,
I recently installed squid2.5 stable 1 on solaris 8 sun machine. Often 
users are complaining about the below shown error. 

The requested URL could not be retrieved
------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/ 

The following error was encountered: 

Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.microsoft.com 

The dnsserver returned: 

Refused: The name server refuses to perform the specified operation. 

This means that: 


The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. 
 Check if the address is correct. 


Your cache administrator is webmaster.
