Our experience is that DNS servers on home routers are quite poor. Flood them with queries and they will crash or send corrupted data or drop packets. There was a famous case of the German Fritzbox in KDE. That's why we do no more than 5 queries at a time. You may want to consider the same. Also, please note that hostname resolution is more than DNS. I really urge you to use *only* the services provided by the OS, nothing else. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
