Good, that's settled then.

Kind of odd that the guy at

[listmom]

Found out something interesting (besides the listmom issues) while
perusing these multiple karl threads; when I read:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid/+bug/97505
So I tried hostname -f on 4 of my systems:

hostname -f

on 3 of my systems it would return:

hostname: Unknown host

So I compared it to my laptop that has a fresh intall on it & also has a
working 'hostname -f', and discovered that if I put the domain/workgroup
name in the 127.0.1.1 line of /etc/hosts, hostname -f doesn't work. Example:

/etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost <mysystemname>.mshome
127.0.1.1 <mysystemname>.mshome

hostname -f = unknown host Note: mshome is the workgroup domain that I
use for samba.

but

/etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost <mysystemname>.mshome
127.0.1.1 <mysystemname>

hostname -f = <mysystemname>

Not sure if any of that has any real bearing on squid or not, but I
recall some threads in the past (Leonard enters stage left) where some
programs were looking for, and not being cooperative when a "FQDN"
wasn't found.



Relax. I learned how to get squid to work and it runs just fine with
a simple one liner in /etc/squid/squid.conf and now it works fine. But a
running squid kills my X Windows. So it can't be used here.
