squid.conf is a CONFIGURATION FILE that happens to have a lot of instructions
for use embedded in it. Everything that starts with a # sign is a "remark" and
is ignored by the program. That way, you can have the instructions for use
right beside and along with the actual configuration directions that the
program reads and follows.
I tried blindly adding a line -- so that the passage now reads :
# TAG: visible_hostname
# If you want to present a special hostname in error messages, etc,
# define this. Otherwise, the return value of gethostname()
# will be used. If you have multiple caches in a cluster and
# get errors about IP-forwarding you must set them to have
#individual names with this setting.
#
#Default:
# none
Hbsk2.localdomain
-- except that I can't make it format right in this post.
Was that supposed to make it work?
Close, but not quite. Notice that the instructions tell you that the tag is
visible_hostname. You have to tell squid what Hbsk2.localdomain means using the
specified tag.
visible_hostname Hbsk2.localdomain
Like that.
