Hello everybody, I am trying to do a manually IPv4 DNS resolve (because of https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/nodejs/GDeSo3zu1eM) in a forked process which *should* be easy (https://gist.github.com/2603955).
Everytime I do this in a forked process (not in the main process, that works!), the callback functions of *dns.resolve()*, *dns.resolve4()* or * dns.lookup()* won't be called. Fun fact: Wireshark shows that the DNS request and the response between client and server has been done. *But: *The client produces an ICMP message (Type 3 = Destination unreachable, Code 3 = Port unreachable) which marks the DNS request as failed and so propably won't be passed from the operating system to node.js. - Running the forked process with *setsid* option or running the server script as root user does not have any influence. - Firewall is deactivated - No SELinux - Every other program can resolve the DNS addresses, so I assume it is a node.js specific problem I can reproduce this behaviour with Ubuntu 10.04 and node.js - v0.7.6 - v0.6.6 - v0.6.17 What I am doing wrong? -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
