Hi, When logging into a current 5.0 system via ssh, I see the following written to the system console (the 'xxx's are my whiteout): ... kernel: Connection attempt to UDP xxx.58.184.35:53 from xxx.58.184.35:49253 ... kernel: Connection attempt to UDP xxx.58.184.35:53 from xxx.58.184.35:49254 ... kernel: Connection attempt to UDP xxx.58.184.35:53 from xxx.58.184.35:49255 ... kernel: Connection attempt to UDP xxx.58.184.35:53 from xxx.58.184.35:49256 Basically, it looks like it is trying to talk to a DNS on the localhost. However, I do not have DNS running. I do not have localhost listed in /etc/resolv.conf. /etc/nsswitch.conf lists 'hosts: files dns' and putting my ssh origination id in /etc/hosts has no effect. It appears to be related to code in canohost.c. Before I start debugging, I thought I'd ask if anyone knew if there is a reason for this behaviour, or where it might be coming from (specifically).
