OK, I fixed changing the DNS server. I made this test the DNS reverse query (dig ?x Local ip address) and the DNS respond with a timeout, I try with other DNS and this new one respond with no records but respond. The only question is, is correct that the server always try to resolve the IP address?

The Redhat Linux server always try to resolve the local IP address on the DNS. For example if I made a ping to some a local PC the server not respond for a like 60 seconds, after that display the ping messages, if I put that IP address on the /etc/hosts file the ping respond immediately, the big problem with this situation is that the pop3 locals clients can?t connect to the mail server because takes much time making the resolve query and the mail software client, respond with a timeout error. This happened with any configuration change. Information: - The DNS is the ISP site - The file /etc/host.conf has (order hosts, bind) - This happened with all IP address including address from the same network Any help? Thank you all, regards.
