Hi,
Thanks a lot for answering.
My actual host is consistent:
~ # host 158.64.125.153
153.125.64.158.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ppp-125-153.adsl.restena.lu.
~ # host ppp-125-153.adsl.restena.lu
ppp-125-153.adsl.restena.lu has address 158.64.125.153

While connecting to the www server I used tcpdump on the server, I noticed that 
the server did not issue any dns queries?!

Thx
Didier
