thx a lot - helps for my very isolated setup here.

but if i'd use ICP/HTCP as well, on other addresses/interfaces, i'd run into
trouble?

looks as if by default it's not easy to protect squid's nameresolving system
from spoofed packets, even if you run a dedicated nameserver to serve squid.
if i don't have a thinking error, it still needs a variable firewall rule
specifiing incoming interface and current squid dns udp listen port - this
rule(s) could at least be fixed if one could manually specify the dns udp
listen port?
