Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 7.4 Operating system: HP-UX 11i Description: hostname lookup in psql or libpg.sl does work Details: psql (and libpg.sl via the DBI and DBD::Pg interface) report: psql: could not translate host name "ysolde" to address: host nor service provided, or not known despite ysolde, in this case, being available via the DNS and both nslookup and dig (and all the other clients) correctly resolving names. If 'ysolde' and its address are placed in the system's /etc/hosts file, psql (and libpq.sl) is able to resolve an address and connect. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
