Jon Siwek updated BIT-964:
--------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.4)
2.5
> Memory issues resulting from missing DNS resolution
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BIT-964
> URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-964
> Project: Bro Issue Tracker
> Issue Type: Problem
> Components: Bro
> Affects Versions: git/master
> Reporter: Seth Hall
> Priority: Low
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> If a box running Bro doesn't have correctly configured DNS it causes a backup
> of DNS resolution requests. It looks like the requests aren't timing out
> quickly enough. We probably need to deal with this one way or another since
> a failing DNS server should not result in Bro crashing. Maybe we could move
> more control of Bro's DNS resolution into scriptland? If we had a boolean
> value that we could flip on or off to enable/disable DNS resolution? Right
> now we only have the environment variable which is not flexible enough to
> deal with situations like this.
