   Hi Luca,

   Thanks for your answer. Makes a lot of sense, the worker will just use the 
translation (I guess it simply call gethostbyname) as long as it lives, so I 
surely need too use DisableReuse=on and then rely on something like dnsmask or 
unbound. I can’t rely on MaxConnectionsPerChild because the translation may 
have changed before it happens. 

   Best!

   Gus
