Package: analog
Version: 2:5.32-9
Severity: normal
When using the DNS WRITE, I have the following problem:
- Lookups work fine until one of them reaches the timeout
- After that, all lookups fail.
When using the DEBUG +D option, I get output as follows:
D: Looking up 144.136.42.190:
D: resolved to CPE-144-136-42-190.vic.bigpond.net.au
D: Looking up 66.196.72.66:
D: resolved to j3156.inktomisearch.com
D: Looking up 62.206.81.227:
D: can't resolve
(after that no hosts can be resolved any more)
I found out that it has to do with the *timeout*, i.e. if a lookup fails
without reaching the timeout the resolving continues working; only if a
lookup reaches the timeout everything stops working.
This problem is also described in
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg14799.html
although they didn't find out what the problem was.
A workaround is setting the DNSTIMEOUT to a sufficiently large value, so
that timeouts don't happen.
Greetings,
Aaron

I can't reproduce this bug, and it has most likely been fixed since it is
very old.
Therefore I am closing this bug, if the problem is still present, please
re-open this bug.
