Well, what is strange is that 127.0.0.1 works fine, but 198.7.0.5 does not . Here is the output dig +trace www.youtube.com @198.7.0.5 ; <<>> DiG 9.16.25 <<>> +trace www.youtube.com @198.7.0.5 ;; global options: +cmd ;; Received 56 bytes from 198.7.0.5#53(198.7.0.5) in 20 ms and that is all I get. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici wb2una cov...@ccs.covici.com
