Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-26 11:14:21] bobsledbob@yahoo.com I'm having a hard time understanding how bug 13243 has anything to do with this bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-25 16:47:42] jimw@php.net duplicate of 13243. (yes, that's a later bug. but it documents the problem more concisely.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-10 13:06:52] bobsledbob@yahoo.com <?php $domain = "www.yahoo.com"; echo gethostbyname($domain) . "<br>\n"; print_r (gethostbynamel($domain)); ?> www.yahoo.com Array () As I've thought about this some, I believe I started having problems with this only after upgrading to 4.06. It may have worked with 4.05 and I know it was working for me with 4.04plx Maybe this has something to do with my Linux Disto? I'm using RedHat 7.0 Thanks for your thoughts. For now, I'm just hard coding the ip address I need, so it's not like this is bogging me down.

(these both work for me just fine..) --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
