Timeout Issue

Hi,

I'm facing a time-out issue while using getaddrinfo(). 

Initially my application used gethostbyname() to get fully qualified
domain name. Now, it has been replaced by getaddrinfo(). ( Reason : to
support ipv6 addresses in the application. )

The original time-out value has been retained. 

I learnt from sm research that getaddrinfo() apparantly takes a longer
time to return.

Could you please provide me with further detailed explanation as to
how and why getaddrinfo takes longer time to return. Is there anyway I
can continue with my present time-out value and still support ipv6
addresses.

Thanks n regards

Vaidya
