Assuming you are running a recent version of apache (1.1) you can do this by simply adding the config line: 'HostnameLookups off' to httpd.conf. As for longterm fixes, dunno. Perhaps look at the configuration of your named (specifically your 'forwarders'). I doubt the problem is specific to 2.1.5, and it could even be caused by one of your forwarders up the line. If the problem persisted you could hardcode their NS domain in your boot file (cache or secondary--not suggested, but would likely solv the problem). -Brandon Gillespie
