Jose,

 

I'm not sure I can help you figure out why it is not working for you, but I
can tell you this which might help you eliminate certain things.

 

I have version 1.2.1 release of PFSense running with squid and squidguard.
Both nytimes.com and www.nytimes.com work fine for me.  I used firefox on a
windows computer to test it.  My DNS servers are internal on the network and
my PFSense box also uses the internal DNS server.

Subject: [pfSense Support] Error thrown only for a URL

 

Hello,

I have installed pfSense 1.2 for our Office network and it is working
perfectly with squid configured.
However, facing a problem for a single site - www.nytimes.com.
The following error is thrown immediately giving the URL
http://www.nytimes.com

"The error is "Network Error (dns_server_failure)
Your request could not be processed because a error occurred contacting the
DNS server.
The DNS server may be temporarily unavailable, or there could be a network
problem."

If I try "nytimes.com" it works.
www.nytimes.com is "ping"able as well as reach via traceroute from my PC as
well as from the pfSense box.

Can anybody suggest me how to resolve this.

TIA
Jose
