ID: 12678 Updated by: alindeman Reported By: bobsledbob@yahoo.com Old Status: Open Status: Feedback Bug Type: Network related Operating System: Linux 2.2.16-22 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Can you access the internet from a browser? gethostbyname() returns the hostname when it can't find the IP (invalid address.) Make sure your nameserver's are setup correctly. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-09 15:57:51] bobsledbob@yahoo.com I'm having a problem where gethostbyname is returning the hostname not the IP address. Resolving hosts works fine on the command line with nslookup, host, etc. This is the exact problem as bug #8856. Andy said it should be resolved in 4.06, but I'm having problems. Thanks.
