I use squid 2.4STABLE6 with debian linux.
I see in my /var/log/syslog a lot of messages like these:

Nov 26 13:16:08 proxy1 squid[10567]: idnsCheckQueue: ID 85a6: giving
up after 17 tries and 304.3 seconds
Nov 26 13:16:19 proxy1 squid[10567]: idnsCheckQueue: ID 85c0: giving
up after 17 tries and 303.3 seconds
Nov 26 13:16:19 proxy1 squid[10567]: idnsCheckQueue: ID 85c2: giving
up after 17 tries and 303.3 seconds
Nov 26 13:16:19 proxy1 squid[10567]: idnsCheckQueue: ID 85c4: giving
up after 17 tries and 303.1 seconds
Nov 26 13:16:29 proxy1 squid[10567]: idnsCheckQueue: ID 85d3: giving
up after 17 tries and 302.7 seconds

and my clients, about 600, are unable to contact internet.
I see that putting positive_dns_ttl to 5 minutes, the default was 6
hours I think, things seems to go better.
What about this?
I have no problem with dns provider because if I connect directly,
without passing through squid, I have no problem at all.
Thank you.
