Hi Eial ! > we've agreed in an off list mail thread that getent is the right > course of action here, why does dnsip should change it?
It was Laurent who mentioned dnsip. You mixed only things and I tried to clarify this. > I still fail to see the issue, why this is different then previously > decided? ping is not a candidate to just query an IP address.

You mixed things up and mentioned to add your applet with optional name 'host'. Giving an applet of your function this name is wrong. This is what I wanted to clarify and why. In addition I wanted to help you finding the info of the mentioned getent command. That's all. > > You forgot to post the versions of Busybox.

May be you detected a bug? Same version shell give comparable output. There seams to be definitly something wrong, especially that '#53'. Try to find the reason.
