Hello, after upgrading to 2.2-BETA_A I noticed that something has changed with the resolver. In releases up to 2.1.5 it was sufficient for me to type e.g. `telnet hadron.tp2' to reach a different subdomain in the same domain of our university. (The resolver tried besides `hadron.tp2' also `hadron.tp2.ruhr-uni-bochum.de' and `hadron.tp2.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de') However, now `telnet hadron.tp2.ruhr-uni-bochum.de' (or the IP#, which is shorter :-) is required. FYI: /etc/resolv.conf: domain mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de nameserver 134.147.6.1 /etc/host.conf: hosts bind # nis uname -a: FreeBSD ghost 2.2-BETA_A FreeBSD 2.2-BETA_A #1: Sat Jan 11 02:57:21 MET 1997 roberte@ghost:/usr/src/sys/compile/GHOST22_1 i386 (I also tried with hostname ghost.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de.) Can I configure something to get the old behaviour, is this a bug or was it done to comply with some standard ?
