Hi,
for some times, I have some troubles to send e-mails, they
are returned w/ a host unknown error message (the relay)...
I spent a whole day to track down the problem w/o success.
however, it seems to be located around bind, but I don't know
if it's the client side or the server side which is broken,
maybe the TCP stack !
I'm running -current last updated around 18 April 2004.
# uname -a
FreeBSD gits 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #26: Tue Apr 27 03:51:12 CEST 2004
# nslookup -q=txt -class=CHAOS version.bind. 0
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
VERSION.BIND text = "8.3.7-REL"
here are some outputs of the host command :
# time host smarthost
smarthost.gits.fr.invalid has address 62.62.156.27
smarthost.gits.fr.invalid has address 62.62.156.28
0.05s real 0.00s user 0.04s system
# time host smarthost
smarthost.gits.fr.invalid has address 62.62.156.28
smarthost.gits.fr.invalid has address 62.62.156.27
5.08s real 0.00s user 0.03s system
# time host smarthost
5.08s real 0.00s user 0.04s system
# time host smarthost
8.14s real 0.00s user 0.04s system
so, sometimes, I got a rapid answer, sometimes a slow answer
and sometimes no answer !
here are some other outputs regarding localhost :
# time host localhost
localhost.gits.fr.invalid has address 127.0.0.1
0.06s real 0.00s user 0.03s system
# time host localhost
localhost.gits.fr.invalid has address 127.0.0.1
5.19s real 0.01s user 0.03s system
# time host localhost
localhost.gits.fr.invalid has address 127.0.0.1
10.14s real 0.01s user 0.01s system
# time host localhost
Host not found.
30.38s real 0.00s user 0.04s system
any hints ?
Cyrille Lefevre.
