AW: [SQU] Squid behind firewall - DNS Problem

Did you use the statement "never direct allow all" in your squid.conf ?
This will prevent the client cache to ask directly the internet.

Another Possibility: Did you allow UDP Port 3130 (for ICP requests) through
your firewall and configured your client to use it
e.g.

cache peer 195.27.54.3 parent 3128 3130

for with internet-proxy on IP-Adress 195.27.54.3, proxy-port 3128 and
ICP-Port 3130

Otherwise, your client will time out.

Betreff: [SQU] Squid behind firewall - DNS Problem

I've got a problem. This is my setup:

Proxy1 Proxy2
    | |
    \_____________/
                 |
            IntProxy

Proxy 1 & 2 is on the internet while IntProxy is only on the internal
network. Everything works fine except when you try to access a website using
their IP address.
It hangs for a couple of minutes before showing the page. I think I've
narrowed it down to what is happening. It looks like it does a reverse dns
lookup on the ip address and it has to wait for that to time out.

Any suggestions for me?

Thanks,
