I'm happy that your postfix is temporarily fixed, but I hope you reconsider running named to do it. It sounds like you're having DNS resolution problems with your provider. The commands I sent in my previous mail should give a better idea of the problem. Ideally, tcpdumps should be gathered to see what is causing the delays. Something like "tcpdump -ni eth0 port 53" should be very revealing. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
