Dig is able to find apache.org. I've seen some posts on downgrading
Net::DNS, but I can't find explicit instructions on how to do it.
I installed it via CPAN inside perl.
Steven,
I use a local DNS cache on my machine, and this for some reason is
confusing the tests. When I configure the server to use "real" DNS
servers, that test "passes" without problems, so I thought it's just a
problem on how the test was designed. I "force" installed the upgrade
and added the following in my "local.cf":
#
## Force DNS
##
dns_available yes
Bingo... that did the trick, and now DNS checks are enabled and have not
had problems with my setup. I even changed the configuracion back to
use my local DNS cache and still have not seen problems...
Hope it helps.
