Yes, that's correct, I have strict-order set. I use the resolvconf package to manage /etc/resolv.conf (no server= in dnsmasq.conf). I also sometimes have to use a VPN (using vpnc), thus I need strict-order for correct lookups. But the bug is reproducable without the VPN. My main connection is usually a DSL line, and I get two nameservers from pppoe. Thanks, Johannes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
