Aha, it appears you've discovered an interesting edge case where the local host's name is neither "localhost", nor is it defined in DNS - which it appears I did not test - sorry! Yes, part of the fix is to apply the patch you've suggested, but moreover, in case the local hostname is not "localhost" nor in DNS, but IS in /etc/hosts, we should use the /etc/hosts values; if it is not in /etc/hosts either, we should revert to localhost. Unfortunately, we cannot simply use gethostbyaddr() for this purpose, because this can potentially hang python forever. I will implement this fix in the next version of system-config-bind. *** Bug 146606 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This is now fixed with system-config-bind-4.0.0-2, which will be in FC4/rawhide 2005-02-02, and which can be downloaded from: http://people.redhat.com/~jvdias/system-config-bind |
