Bug#526823: libc6: Not fixed in 2.9-10
You are probably mistaken. DNS server *must* be given by IP. There is no other solution. domain and search are directives to control the way unqualified DNS queries are answered. Thanks for the further help. I tried the single-request line in resolv.conf and it didn't help. You're right about the DNS server, I guess. In addition to the domain and search lines in my resolv.conf, there is another nameserver line that specifies the IP address of my router, which I figured just had to do with something else. But I guess it's there to tell my system to get the DNS server from the router? In turn, my router specifies as the DNS server the IP address of my DSL modem/gateway/whatever-it-is. And then the DSL modem specifies the DNS servers of my IP by the correct numerical IP addresses. I also tried just plugging my computer directly into the DSL modem, via ethernet, and bypassing my router, but still had the same problems and single-request didn't help there either. But again directly specifying the DNS server addresses as nameserver entries in resolv.conf, either using the opendns addresses or those from my IP, does solve the problem. It just apparently won't work automagically through my router or through the DSL modem/router. If it's useful information, I have another computer running Arch Linux, going through the same router and DSL modem and it is not having this problem. In the resolv.conf on my Arch system, there are just two lines, one that begins search and gives the name of my IP and the other that begins nameserver and then gives the IP of my router.

Which DNS server are you currently using? Have you tried to use single-request into /etc/resolv.conf? Thanks for the help. This is on my laptop, so the DNS server depnds on where I am. At home on DSL, my IP assigns the DNS server by name, rather than numerical address. E.g.: domain myip.net search myip.net This is where I have the problem. If the DNS server is assigned as a numerical address, it works fine. I've noticed this when am at other locations. Hence the opendns workaround solves the problem at home because the DNS server is assigned as a numerical address. E.g. nameserver 208.67.222.222 I have not tried single-request in /etc/resolv.conf. I didn't really understand how to do that. Just add a line that says single-request at the end? start? of /etc/resolv.conf?

Package: libc6 Version: 2.9-10 Severity: normal I am still experiencing this problem with libc6 2.9-10. I first saw it in 2.9-4. 2.9-6 fixed it. It broke again with 2.9-9 and the upgrade to 2.9-10 did not help. The opendns work-around does work for me (but I really don't want to use opendns).
