Hello, I have 3.3-STABLE kernel on 3.3-RELEASE system. I have noticed the following behaviour on my system. If I issue the w command many times the FROM field displays to me the host from which the users are connected but it happens often that the w output hangs for some second and instead of the hostname the IP number is displayed like if the w command is unable to find the hostname from the IP address example: admin@righi 10:59am ~>w 10:59AM up 5 days, 18:55, 3 users, load averages: 0.39, 0.31, 0.21 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT admin p2 suncms.bo.infn.i Tue09AM - telnet localhost admin p4 suncms.bo.infn.i 10:58AM - w bsd p5 localhost 10:43AM - (pine) admin@righi 10:59am ~>w 10:59AM up 5 days, 18:55, 3 users, load averages: 0.39, 0.31, 0.21 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT admin p2 suncms.bo.infn.i Tue09AM - telnet localhost wadmin p4 131.154.11.72 10:58AM - w bsd p5 localhost 10:43AM - (pine) and look that 131.154.11.72 and suncms are the same host from which I Am right now logged two times. Why this is happening ? thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
