Sure it does. ping <hostname> resolves address via DNS. Which is why I'm more thinking of bogus HTTP_PROXY (which fetch(1) would show) or an ISP forced transparent proxy which uses a stale DNS record. 15 days ago the website outage and sparked a load of me too mails on this list. I haven't checked if DNS was updated at the time, but it makes sense. -- Mel _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
