Hi!

I've read that many people have suffered from various problems
in the last few days with 4.2-STABLE.

I had trouble with ftpd and Apache, someone reported about telnet
timeouts, then there was ssh, xterm. I guess all these have one
common factor: name resolution.

I had major difficulties with -STABLE from last Monday, downgrading to
4.2-20010220-STABLE helped for me alot!

And now the question: has anyone located the problem? I saw some
changes for the resolver related files so this seems like a
good candidate.

Please note that my DNS works both way, i.e. name-to-address and
address-to-name have been working for ages (ofcourse I verified
this also in the faulty environment). Adding the client's 
hostname into /etc/hosts helped me e.g. with ftpd but I don't want
to add all hosts in our network to every /etc/hosts.

All ideas all welcome!

Martti
