Squid caches dns queries with ipcache, isn't it?
My proxy go through a firewall to connect to internet.
This firewall has port 53 open to permit dns queries.
If I restart squid it goes well for about 1 hour, what about this?
May be the problem depends by many client requests?
I have only about 600 clients using the proxy.
May be I solve putting a second network card, one to lan and one to
firewall?
Thank you.
