PHP 4.0 Bug #7288: Functions checkdnsrr() and getmxrr() not working

From: andy.hoffman@bms.com Operating system: WinNT4.0 SP5 PHP version: 4.0.3 PHP Bug Type: *Network Functions Bug description: Functions checkdnsrr() and getmxrr() not working As reported in bug id# 5311, same problems under NT4 with PHP4.0.3 (www.php4win.de compilation). This is to confirm that the problems seen with checkdnsrr() and getmxrr() are not specific only to Win2K, but to other Win32 systems as well. Perhaps this is a problem with how Win32s DNS lookup is structured as opposed to Unix/Linux flavors? Is there any additional configuration which is necessary for Win32 DNS lookups using these functions? Whichever the solutions, checkdnsrr() and getmxrr() currently never complete a successful DNS lookup, while other DNS functions, such as gethostbyaddr() or gethostbyname() work correctly (returning valid IP addresses and host names). -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=7288&edit=1
