I read the thread at: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=91507&highlight=resolving+host
but, frankly, it sounds like a load to me. Name resolution on my two Gentoo boxes (one at work, on a Gig-E network, static; the other, at home, behind a Linksys router connected to a cable modem, dhcp) is ridiculously slow. At home, Mutt and Evolution time out unless I put my email server in /etc/hosts. What gives? Again at home, RH9 and my wife's WinXP box exhibit no such slowness?
