First, please cc me in replies. I'm not subscribed to the list. $ ll /usr/bin/wget; wget -V -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 234408 Feb 12 13:56 /usr/bin/wget GNU Wget 1.10.2 (Red Hat modified)
I've encountered a very strange problem after upgrading from FC3 to FC5. wget fails to resolve any domain unless I force IPv4 (using the "-4" switch). See output below. All other commands, e.g. dig, nslookup, ping and host, function normally. I did have a similar problem with curl but once I disabled IPv6 (echo "alias net-pf-10 off" >> /etc/modprobe.conf) curl started working again.
