[squid-users] DNS Issues with Squid

Hello,
I'm�experimenting�with squid to lower overall bandwidth usage for
about 500 users, I've implemented squid and squidguard and blocked
porn and warez sites�successfully�but I'm running into difficulties
with the local intranet websites, or any internal websites. ( note I
am testing this currently so no users are affected :P )
Upon going to any internal websites I receive the following error

> While trying to retrieve the URL:�http://test/
>
> The following error was encountered:
>
> Unable to determine IP address from host name for�home
>
> 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.

I've configured my resolv.conf with the respective dns servers...

Summary

---------------------------------------------------------------------Following
works-----------------------------------------
If I ping 'test' it pings fine from the squidbox.
If i visit the website�test.inside.domain.com�it works fine.
If I visit�http://test/%a0without the proxy�it works fine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------Following
doesn't work---------------------------------------
If I go to�http://test%a0with proxy it doesn't work.

Also, I was wondering is there anyway I could cache a live stream such
as the worldcup broadcasts from various sites. Over the past few days
I am noticing a lot of traffic usage.

Any and all help appreciated,
Thank you
