Description Harald Koenig 2009-11-04 16:34:38 UTC
I'm running a local named (finally again, with default kernel;) but name resolving still is broken:

with no "nameserver" line in resolv.conf the man page claims that "the default is to use the name server  on  the local machine" which exactly is how it worked up to 11.1.  now in 11.2 I need an explicit "nameserver 127.0.0.1" line -- why ????

www.x.org is an alias for annarchy.freedesktop.org.
annarchy.freedesktop.org has address 131.252.210.176
annarchy.freedesktop.org mail is handled by 10 gabe.freedesktop.org.

A glibc feature => reassign.
