Re: /etc/hosts parsing support question

You are looking for the ipcache (hostname->ip)..

fqdncache is ip->hostname and can only have one name per ip.

Note: in /etc/hosts each name for a single IP traditionally has to be
listed on the same line, with the primary name being the first listed
(primary == the name returned on reverse lookup from IP). Not sure
how Squid does things.
