When you use the 'host' command to resolve a CNAME, it will show all the A records twice: (7) smkelly@edgemaster:~$ host www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com is a nickname for microsoft.com microsoft.com has address 207.46.130.45 microsoft.com has address 207.46.230.218 microsoft.com has address 207.46.230.219 microsoft.com has address 207.46.230.218 microsoft.com has address 207.46.230.219 microsoft.com has address 207.46.130.45 The host command never used to behave in this way and I'm not sure if it is a bug with the program itself or the resolver. -- Sean Kelly or PGP KeyID: 4AC781C7 http://www.sean-kelly.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
