Hello! All connections to my machine are delayed. "telnet localhost" takes 20 secs to connect and another 20 secs to display the login. "telnet 127.0.0.1" connects immidiately, but also needs 20 secs to display a login.
Seems like some dns-lookup-problem to me. But I can't see anything wrong in my config. It's a dialup machine running a woody install. Manual lookups with "host" give the following: $ host 127.0.0.1 Name: localhost Address: 127.0.0.1 $ host localhost Nameserver not responding localhost.domain.de A record not found, try again $ host 192.168.2.15 Name: hostname.domain.de Address: 192.168.2.15 Aliases: hostname $ host hostname Nameserver not responding hostname.domain.de A record not found, try again Any ideas, someone? The config files are included below.
