I'm guessing it's a transient failure, possibly > timing related. Hmm.. ./netdb.h:595:# define EAI_NONAME -2 /* NAME or SERVICE is unknown. */ Looks like a permanent failure there, but that's my glibc on Linux. That particular error is supposed to be a permanent "the nameserver said this doesn't exist", rather than a temporary failure of not being able to talk to the nameserver or getting a response. That said, if it failed just once, it might just be e.g. a caching problem upstream somewhere. This is the sort of small wrapper around libc that's hard to unit test in a way that doesn't end up relying on external dependencies to give the right answers. :/ Thanks for the report though, -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk ICQ# 4135350 | Registered Linux# 179460 http://www.leonerd.org.uk/Thread Previous | Thread Next
