[squid-users] host mapping not working for local http server

squid works fine for everything external but not for our internal company
website which is on an internal (private) webserver.

squid will deliver the site if the clients use the ip address for the
webserver in the browser (http://192.168.20.15) but not if they use the
domain name (http://ourcompany.web).

this was previously achieved with a windows proxy by adding an entry in the
hosts file on the proxy server:
192.168.20.15 ourcompany.web

i've made that same change in /etc/hosts and it works on the squid server
itself but not on a client configured to use the squid server.

i enabled debug_options ALL,1 33,2 for debugging acls and could see it
forwarding the ip addr request but the domain name request didnt even
appear.

I appreciate any help!
