Hi there, So refusing to resolve a numeric IP address seems to happen only if the address is resolved while there are no addresses at all configured on the system (based on the use of AI_ADDRCONFIG in getaddrinfo). What is the network configuration of these client machines? Is the message appearing before or after configuration of network interfaces? And just in case, what is the resolver configuration (/etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf)? iustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
