It's slightly better than the way they do it in BIND 9, but still adds a delay the first time you connect to a new server that's not EDNS0 aware. It's worse if you connect to a lot of old and/or broken servers. Given the overwhelming suck-itude of BIND 8 8.3.1, it's a pain we need to live with. -- We have known freedom's price.

Any empirical observations? Hopefully others will see your message and can comment if they've noticed anything similar. I haven't. By chance was a FreeBSD'ism left out of the upgrade?

No. host(1) is a dns specific tool. *sigh*. So how does one figure out what amd and sendmail are seeing as they try to resovlve addresses? tcpdump -ns 1500 -i INTERFACE udp port 53 Interface may be lo0 if you're running a name server on the same machine.

So how does one figure out what amd and sendmail are seeing as obrien they try to resovlve addresses? In sendmail's case: sendmail -d8.8 _rest of args here_ Don't run a daemon with that though. Or in the general case, you can watch resolver lookups with: env RES_OPTIONS=debug _insert program here_ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
