With the following script:
<?php
$db = gethostbyname("gmx.de5");
var_dump($db);
$db = gethostbyname("gmx.de");
var_dump($db);
?>
Edin can't reproduce the problem under windows.
Can you please try that script? You're saying that host gmx.de5 on the
server reports an error but you're under windows and windows doesn't
have 'host'... Are you sure your DNS is working fine? I'm getting
213.165.65.100 from gmx.de and not 62.75.134.200...
gethostbyname() is also supposed to return the hostname on failure. At
least thats what we (Edin and me) are getting under Windows and
Linux/Unix.
Thank you for your report.

Hi,
try this:
echo(gethostbyname("gmx.de5"))
output is: 62.75.134.200
in fact, this domain doesn't exist, only gmx.de exists.
('host gmx.de5' on the server reports an error)
this behavior is bad when for example using getbyhostname to validate
an email address, because an email send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would surely
not arrive...
