Re: [SQU] dnsserver issues

Squid-2.3 defaults to use an internal DNS client.

It can be build to use the old dnsserver method with the
--disable-internal-dns.

The internal DNS is faster, more efficient, and can handle a arbitrary
DNS queue without any problems. However, it only implements DNS lookups
(not /etc/hosts, NIS or whatever else) and is new technology so some
people might want to run with the older dnsserver implementation.

The following squid.conf directives are only valid for dnsserver
configurations:
  cache_dns_program
  dns_childrens
  dns_defnames
