It is not removed but only way to get back to first nameserver is if the next nameserver does not answer so sresolv tries next one after and finally wraps over to first one. I have some patches that try to use round-robin and times the nameserver errors so that they will be eventually used again if they come back to life. They do not work (or even compile) yet, however. --Pekka > Pekka Pessi wrote : > > On 3/6/06, Thomas Rosenblatt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> I'm interested with the Sofia DNS Resolver.
