Thanks for the input everyone. It seems it Apache itself can't do lookups either (ie: Hostnamelookups On ..doesn't actually do anything..so, going to hunt down the issues inside Apache...) funny thing is I've got a test server with the same exact port versions and almost identical config files, so..I don't know...perl scripts and php from the CLI work fine..so my actual DNS resolution is working okay..just Apache is losing it somewhere...if anyone has some thoughts..let me know :) On Thursday 09 November 2006 15:27, Henrik Hudson <lists@xxxxxxxxxxx> sent a missive stating: > Hey List- > > running: apache 2.2, freebsd 6.2 and php 4.4.4 > > I've got a wierd issue.
