Hi all, I just upgraded to Dachstien CD rc5 from rc4. I have crontab scheduled to email me my logs which it has been doing faithfully until today. Somehow the name lookup fails from the router. DNS is working fine form inside the lan. I turned off dnscach to see if this was the problem but no difference. I then added a hosts entry via network.conf and the mail command now works. It seems however, that there is a problem somewhere else and that I shouldn't have to put the line in /etc/hosts but I don't know where to look. Any help to find out why DNS is no longer working from the firewall would be appreciated.
