your example works fine for me. it sounds like you may have some sort
of local configuration problem. does gethostbyname() ever work? does
it only fail on particular domain names? php's gethostbyname() is a
very thin wrapper over the C gethostbyname(), so it seems extremely
unlikely that any failure to resolve is going to be in the php code.
