Get rid of 127.0.0.1 anywhere and everywhere except for that single entry in the hosts file. 127.0.0.1 localhost In /etc/resolv.conf give it a real DNS machine. nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 4.2.2.2 or the nameserver your LAN actually uses. Alternatively, list the target machines, all of them, in the /etc/hosts file. The hosts file is ( usually ) consulted first, so then DNS won't matter. If this is a stand alone, not on a network, then /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.2 machine-name By having the resolv.conf file point to the loopback address, the resolver is waiting for BIND through the loopback on port 53, to return the machine address, if BIND is even running on the local machine. When that doesn't happen, you're waiting for the resolver to time out, usually about a minute or so. -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
