It should - but this mistake needs around 20 Seconds for timeout (we stoppt the named completly): *** Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: No response from server Server: Address: Non-authoritative answer: Name: htdig.org Address: 216.136.171.204 This is the right way (without loopback) - and it works in the same second: # nslookup htdig.org Server: Address: Name: htdig.org Address: 216.136.171.204 > What system are you running? SuSE Linux 2.4.0-4GB #1 Mon Jan 22 16:42:16 GMT 2001 i686 I found, that I run an older version of htdig. I will upgrade to 3.1.6 first, before I ask any more questions. It's our fault - nothing wrong with htdig. ;-) Thanks a lot. -- Regards, Dirk Kutsche -- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: AMD - Your access to the experts on Hammer Technology!
