What do you mean by "there is no problem looking up 192.168.253.140 on
the machine where AOLserver is running"? What did you do to "verify"
it? Do you have an entry in /etc/hosts for 192.168.253.140? Does your
nameserver have a 253.168.192.in-addr.arpa zone defined with a IN PTR
for 140.253.168.192.in-addr.arpa?
It's not a problem with /etc/resolv.conf or /etc/hosts or anything like
that. I verified this with dig, and also looking up the reverse for a
"public" IP address, which I mentioned. I have no problems using any
other application that uses DNS. I'm 100% confident this is not a DNS
problem per se.
What bothers me most is that you say AOLserver 3.4.2 works fine -- is
this AOLserver 3.4.2 running on this exact same FreeBSD 5.2.1 machine,
or on some other machine that's still running AOLserver 3.4.2?
Yes, on the same machine the problem does not occur with 3.4.2. This is
what is really puzzling me.
