Brett,

Two ideas:

Put your host names in /etc/hosts and check that you have order
hosts,bind in /etc/resolv.conf.   If that doesn't work then put up
a DNS server on the same machine as squid and arrange it to
be authorative for the intranet hosts (ie. appropriate master zone
files) and a caching DNS resolver for everything else.
