I've fixed this problem with a new mergemaster -a. It was not a DNS failure. I know my DNS is working correctly. Now the login- and pppd problem have changed. The first login is working properly. But each other login keeps the same problem. Every remotely login with telnet takes 2 minutes until the login prompt appears again! Same with pppd. I located the problem in the defaultroute. Bsd is changing my entry in rc.conf without any checkback (no DNS problem but a router problem). I added my route by hand. (route add ...) but nothing appears in the routing-tabelle (netstat -r) any idea? regards thomas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
