[squid-users] Proxy bypass problem

I'm not sure if this is a squid configuration problem or something else.

I'm running Apache webserver for local intranet and squid/dansguardian for
proxy/filter to internet.

Instranet site is: mysite.mycompany.lan at 192.168.1.4 with a entry in
ect/hosts as mysite.

Proxy is 192.168.1.3 with DNS name of proxy.mycompany.lan Users are using
Windows XP and IE 6 and 7 on workstations with IE configured to bypass proxy
server for local addresses. A ping to mysite returns 192.168.1.4

Problem.... On workstations (both IE 6 and 7), if I try to connect to
http://mysite, IE tells me "Please configure the proxy server
settings.....", however, if I try to connect to http://mysite.mycompany.lan
or http://192.168.1.4, then I get connected. If I configure IE Exception
"Do not use proxy server....." and enter mysite IP address it will load the
site but causes other problems. (looks like it doesnt really bypass) What I
need to be able to do is have http://mysite and http://mysite.mycompany.lan
bypass the proxy server without adding an exception. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
