Subject: URL Problem

Hello! Everyone

My email server name is xyz.com.pk and our website which is hosted at website hosted provider its name www.xyz.com.pk.

When we try to access website on our LAN under squid service my server generated a error.

Error is:
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.xyz.com.pk/

The following error was encountered:

Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.xyz.com.pk

The dnsserver returned:

Name Error: The domain name does not exist.

This means that:

The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.
Check if the address is correct.

Note: When we are connected with dailup without LAN, we access our website.

Kindly help me to solve this problem.
Regards

well it means that the domain name server used on the box running squid could not resolve the domain name.
i'd look into resolv.conf and checked any script that automatically updates it (eg. /etc/ppp/ip-up.d or /etc/network/interfaces etc.)

Hello! - Everyone

In this type of case you can mentioned your browsing IP (which is provided by ISP) in squid.conf script.

Example:

dns_nameservers 100.200.0.20
