Re: ircd and dns

Hi!

 hi, i would like to know how ircd check for dns ?
 i have this error  Couldn't resolve your hostname; using your IP address
 instead
 but if i try to nslookup all is good it s only with ircd anyone has already
 had this matter and solve it?

How do you use nslookup?

If nslookup 'yourhost.yourdomain.com' gives IP address 12.34.56.78, 
then that's only half of what's needed. 'nslookup 12.34.56.78' must 
also give 'yourhost.yourdomain.com' (ideally) or at least *some* domain 
name.

BTW, 'nslookup' is deprecated, 'host' and/or 'dig' is recommended 
instead. But that doesn't help you with your problem.
