I have similar problem with loclhost and ISDN. When
/etc/init.d/isdnutils is started I cannot get netscape to access
localhost before Linux has asked both nameservers in resolv.conf which
leads to a hang. I have not had these problems with Potato only now when
upgrading to woody. I think that there might be a libc6 bug, but I'm not
sure.
