Hi, I just reinstalled debian this week. It has not solved my issue of resolving dns taking a long time. Basically the issue is: If I want to access a dns such as google, or debian.org, it takes for ever to resolve the dns. Whether I'm using firefox or lynx to browse the web or msmtp to send email, the resolving of dns is over 30 seconds. If I use the ip address though, access is almost instant. So what can I do to solve this problem? Only occuring on my debian system, windows vista on the same system works fine, and no one else on the network seems to have issues like these. The issue started happening when I got my new dsl2 modem (netgear, nb5). As I said I did a reinstall, and with the base system and testing with lynx, I found the problem pretty much the same. So how can I speed up dns resolution?
Thanks, Daniel.
