Re: [squid-users] Bypassing local address

Our setup works fine in this situation:
Squid asks the internal DNS. The internal DNS forwards all unknown
unknown request the external DNS, but resolvs all local stuff. If you
want to take load from your internal DNS, you can put a caching DNS on
the squid box.
Anyone who uses the automatic proxy config is bypassing the squid for
local sites.
Additionally all internal sites are not cached (matched with ip-acl =
all non-public adresses 192.168.0.0/16 and so on) for those who insist
of using the proxy for all traffic.
Be careful not to leak internal DNS-Information into the world with this
setup.
