Maybe I'm missing something here. Why haven't you put the name servers into ASSP's config since you have completely figured out that ASSP's lookup mechanism isn't working? Rusty Nejdl On Sat, 16 Apr 2011 10:19:46 +0930, Peter W Bowey wrote: > use Net::DNS;Net::DNS::Resolver - DNS resolver

Yes I run my own DNS servers too. I left something in the DNSServers field so I will erase those. Although I'm not a perl programmer I ran this snippet (and got "Query Failed: No Nameservers): use Net::DNS; my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver->new; my $query = $res->query("example.com", "NS")

That is a strange DNS => "Name Server p�" It should reflect your actual system DNS IP(s), so what is this weird "p�" ? When I get a DNS error related to ASSP it looks like this "warning: Name Server 210.23.129.34: does not respond or timed out" or if DNS is not responding then you do see the
