In my case I found that nscd was running on my machine, and somehow it was interacting with Bind and the resolver library calls under some circumstances and the error you quote appeared. Stopping the nscd daemon and using chkconfig to ensure it is not restarted seems to have nailed that. Your other error looks like a temporary routing problem, but I will say that my nscd problem was triggered when my DSL connection dropped out overnight for some reason. -- Brian Morrison bdm at fenrir dot org dot uk GnuPG key ID DE32E5C5 - http://wwwkeys.uk.pgp.net/pgpnet/wwwkeys.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
