Re: [squid-users] hierarchy problerms

I got the first problem solved, with the child forwarding all requests
to the parent. But the second problem still exists. My college does not
run a dns server, could that be the problem? Or am i missing something
in the configuration? Foll are the entries related to dns in my conf as
I have kept them...

# cache_dns_program /usr/lib/squid/
# dns_children 5
# dns_retransmit_interval 5 seconds
# dns_timeout 5 minutes
# dns_defnames off
dns_nameservers 10.0.1.1
 negative_ttl 5 minutes
# positive_dns_ttl 6 hours
# negative_dns_ttl 5 minutes
 visible_hostname none
#hostname_aliases none

Thank You
