[This mail was resent due to delivery problems. If you have received it twice, please ignore.] I have been having some trouble with telnet on a specific machine since a make-world a week ago. I've traced the problem to something specifically to do with the "secure" version of telnet, which is the one that ends up getting installed. If I go up into the object tree to check the "regular" telnet out, [101:~] cd /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/telnet [102:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/telnet] ./telnet nsmail Trying 1.2.3.4... Connected to nsmail.myorg.org Escape character is '^]'. login: But if I go to secure telnet, [103:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/telnet] cd ../../secure/usr.bin/telnet [104:/usr/obj/usr/src/secure/usr.bin/telnet] ./telnet nsmail nsmail: No address associated with hostname It seems like the host lookup is broken. Note that those commands really were run back-to-back. The fact that one works and that all other commands do not seem to have trouble with host lookups makes me think the problem is with the secure telnet. Any ideas what to do? I did rebuild the secure telnet, no joy. Didn't do a complete make-world, not without some hope it might help. -- Crist J.
