The resolver(3) system library uses connected UDP sockets. Other system library functions introduce their own system calls. Even if you think you have discovered all "normal" behavior, you can expect random failures, because the normal behavior does not cover all unusual scenarios. For example, Viktor already mentioned the need for DNS over TCP when a response is too large for UDP. Wietse
