Bind on Centos4

[tengel at fluid.com (Troy Engel)]

Someone else recently had this problem (search the archives a few days 
back). His solution was to rebuild a SRPM from Fedora Core of an older 
BIND and it solved it.

I suggested it might be IPv6 lookups stalling you; try adding:

   alias net-pf-10 off

to your /etc/modprobe.conf and reboot the server, see if that fixes the 
slowness issue. This used to show up when IPv6 was first introduced into 
Fedora Core, Mozilla had lookup pause issues as well.
