[squid-users] Squid DNS Problem

Hi,
I hope I am not posting an issue that has been posted before.

I am testing Squid for deployment in my organization, and from all the
client machines that I have connected to Squid, I get the following error
message at seemingly random times, and for seemingly random domains. Could
anyone help me figure out as to why I am getting this error message. I have
included the error message and my squid.conf file below.

Sample Error Message:
The requested URL could not be retrieved

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://squid.visolve.com/squid24s1/externals.htm

The following error was encountered:

Unable to determine IP address from host name for squid.visolve.com
The dnsserver returned:

Server Failure: The name server was unable to process this query.
This means that:

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