A friend of mine fixed it temporarly if she adds nslookup -nosea , and everything goes fine, but if someone is using us as a nameserver, that will not help. I was wondering if there are some ways to solve or debug this problem. Thanks, Hassan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
