Actually, "DOLACHIN 127.0.0.1" is in my hosts file. It even has the #PRE directive meaning that the lookup is never attempted.
But I don't think that's the issue, though. Or maybe it is but there's a way completely around it. Once again, pages served by Apache do not have this problem at all. So Apache (blissfully) is not doing something that Tomcat is!!! I wish the lookup (or reverse lookup?) does not happen at all. And if it does, how difficult can it be to lookup itself? Also, I described the situation that annoys me the most, but perhaps the best example to discuss is this: We have a desktop w/ 2 "Connections" (in the sense of XP's "Network connections"): 1. Ethernet 2. Some obscure unused "VE Network Connection". Unless the latter is disabled, the 30 seconds delay takes place. Thanks for all the help. Dola PS: I'm just amazed that I seem the only one to have this problem. Is anyone else using Tomcat 3.3.2 + Apache 1.3 on XP? --- "Lott, Carey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The hosts file is located here on XP: > > C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: QM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 26, 2004 10:19 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: Nagging DNS issue > > > On Mon, Jul 26, 2004 at 12:22:05AM -0700, Dola > Woolfe wrote: > : "http://DOLACHIN/myproject"; also gets > : an immediate response. > : > : But not always!
