(these both work for me just fine..) --Jani Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-09 16:13:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Can you access the internet from a browser? Yes, I can resolve any hostname using nslookup, host, etc. This machine accesses the internet just fine. ie. from the command line: [hydro@mail htdocs]$ host calc.intershipper.net calc.intershipper.net is a nickname for www.intershipper.net www.intershipper.net has address 216.58.153.11 [hydro@mail htdocs]$ but from PHP <?php echo gethostbyname ("calc.intershipper.net"); ?> calc.intershipper.net > Make sure your nameserver's are setup correctly. To the best of my knowledge, they are. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-09 16:02:33] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can you access the internet from a browser? gethostbyname() returns the hostname when it can't find the IP (invalid address.) Make sure your nameserver's are setup correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-09 15:57:51] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm having a problem where gethostbyname is returning the hostname not the IP address. Resolving hosts works fine on the command line with nslookup, host, etc. This is the exact problem as bug #8856. Andy said it should be resolved in 4.06, but I'm having problems. Thanks.
