Package: project Severity: important
I'm working with computers since 1990. I'm no expert. I'm working with Debian about 5 years. My computer gets the ip-address from the router (dhcp). He gets the address of the nameserver from the router too. The ip-address of the nameserver is 192.168.0.1. The file /etc/resolv.conf got the line "nameserver 192.168.0.1". The nameserver of my provider is slow. So I got an account on dyndns.com and use their DNS. If I put the address of the nameserver from dyndns.com into the file resolv.conf (nameserver 216.146.35.35) there will be every second and more a request to the nameserver (using the command "netstat -anp"). If I put the old address "192.168.0.1" back into the file "resolv.conf" requests to the nameserver went normal, means: requests will be done if a program really needs a new address for e.g. blaaa.blaa.bla. I got the same behaviour if I put the address of the nameserver from my provider into resolv.conf "212.95.97.111". I guess this is really strange. I did never saw so much queries to a nameserver on my computer. Hope, somebody will help!
