escaping: must have lost requests

2005-08-05 Thread Wolfgang Breyha
Hi! I tried to run SA 3.1 pre3 and pre4, but I've lots of troubles with lost DNS requests. I tried pre 4 now on (with updated but original perl rpms) redhat 7.3 and FC1-4 on different hosts, networks and DNS (even local caching NS). With or without custom rules...doesn't make any difference.

As far as I'm concerned it has not been fixed, although I've seen a number of similar threads, and could have missed something else. Worked great until the very moment in time I applied the first 3.10 pre update. No problem with versions 3-3.04. Ben Steve Dimoff wrote: Did this ever get f
