If you use an intranet domain and your hosts are all in DNS, this can be easily addressed with append_domain, as a simple google search would tell you: http://nixdoc.net/files/forum/about28247.html
I check my resolv.conf, it's sweet. Pinging just the computer name (without the DNS suffix appended) from the linux box results in a correct DNS lookup and the ping works fine. However, Squid still doesn't resolve just the computer name, even though the DNS config of the linux box is working.
I added the append_domain option in Squid. This worked, however not without problems. We have *two* domains with lengthy names. When using append_domain, it blindly adds the single domain suffix to any computer name without dots. If the computer is a member of another Whereas what I need is a correct DNS lookup search because of our two domains. If one DNS lookup fails, try the next domain suffix, etc.
Is this do-able?
