Re: problem with long alias name

The host was probably down or refusing connections when you first tried
the long name. Squid then negatively cached the error.

Negatively cached responses goes away after 5 minutes (or whatever you
have set negative_ttl to), or when you force a refresh of the object
(reload button, unless you are using transparent proxying which may make
this troublesome).
