Subject: [squid-users] squid to resolve local domain with out seeing
/etc/hosts
Hi all,
I have installed squid and is working fine for many days.
Recently we shifted our web server to a IP say 172.16.2.80.
but the system in which squid is running has in its /etc/hosts file
172.16.0.1 webserver
I want this entry not to be changed becos of some
other purpose.
so now if anybody browse webserver thru squid it is pointing to 172.16.0.1
as webserver.
How can I make squid not to look in to /etc/hosts file and should resolve
the local domains also thru DNS only..
Pls guide me
