Operating system: linux 2.0.33
PHP version: 3.0 Latest CVS (01/03/1999)
PHP Bug Type: Misbehaving function
Bug description: nslookup broke in fsockopen on old systems
Don't know if this has been fixed yet because this is actually cvs as of a couple of nights
ago, but this was not a problem in php 3.0.6.
If you run fsockopen on an old slackware linux, the nslookup doesn't work, but it will do the
lookup if the name is in the hosts file. This seems to me like several programs lately have had
this problem in that redhat seems to return dns differently than slackware. Maybe other byte
order??? This does not cause a problem on redhat 5.2 system.
Anyways thought you guys might wanna know. If anyone out there has been running my cybercash stuff
and it has been sending weird error stuff back, this is the reason. New versions of the code call
this "unable to contact credit processor"
