Ok, I've just about had it. :-)

It does not matter what version, from squid-1.1.2 to squid-1.1.9, I use
the DNS server will not accept domain names. e.g. home.netscape.com
But, it will accept IP names e.g. 203.30.168.7

I have got dnsserver to accept domain names, when I run it from the
command line. (i.e. bash# dnsserver ). It will now return the correct
value, I had to get into the code to get that working. But, that's another
story....

OK, now when I use netscape and try to access a page
( e.g. home.netscape.com ) i get the following message:

**ERROR
**
**The requested URL could not be retrieved
**
**
**While trying to retrieve the URL: http://home.netscape.com/
**
**The following error was encountered:
**
** Connection Failed
**
**The system returned:
**
** (13) Permission denied
**
**This means that:
**
** The remote site or server may be down. Please try again soon.

But when I put in: http://203.30.168.7 it works fine. Can anyone please
help me.....I'm really getting to a desperate stage.

Thanks,

Dave.
