Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-stable@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk There has just been a change made to gethostbydns. Can someone confirm that this works. I have just done a make, make install on the source tree and rebooted; which should have been enough to install the changes. However, ftp, telnet sendmail etc no longer work as I get a host name lookup failure. I have not done a make world yet as this takes some hours and I don't want anyone else to fall foul if there is a problem. If there is a problem can someone e-mail me a patch as I can't use cvsup now! Chris
