I have a networking issue. Sometimes, because I am switching from one comupter to another to connect to the net, my provider doesn't assign my IP address through DHCP. I go to the other computer (Windows), release the IP and restart the network on mine (SuSE8.2). I do get an IP address but the DNS is then VERY slow to respond. I think that a reboot solves this issue each time but I presume that it means there is another way to solve it.
Any hint knowing that I don't have the possibility to build/buy a router?
Use 'tethereal -n -i ppp0 port 53'
I've begun by installing ethereal and ran it after a network restart. While at the usage, it seemed I had the same slowlyness, I don't know if the behaviour on the net was the same as when I had that issue. At least, it seems it got fixed from itself a few seconds after this atempt. I'll use this the next time I encounter this issue. Here is the output for illustration: 0.000000 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query AAAA www.netfilter.org 0.164316 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response 0.181393 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query AAAA www.netfilter.org.coditel.net 0.206041 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, No such name 0.206778 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query A www.netfilter.org 0.293273 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response A 213.95.27.115 0.294301 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 5.295754 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.2.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 8.305753 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.36.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 14.317034 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 19.325676 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.2.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 22.335689 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.36.48 DNS Standard query PTR 115.27.95.213.in-addr.arpa 29.488064 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query AAAA www.netfilter.org 29.531440 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response 29.531898 213.214.32.2 -> 152.158.16.48 DNS Standard query AAAA www.netfilter.org.coditel.net 29.572968 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, No such name 40.745234 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure 40.745360 152.158.16.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure 45.500650 152.158.2.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure 45.501187 152.158.2.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure 48.500901 152.158.36.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure 48.501237 152.158.36.48 -> 213.214.32.2 DNS Standard query response, Server failure
Your resolv.conf is probably not updated
Yes, it is.
You can try whether DHCLIENT_RELEASE_BEFORE_QUIT=yes in
It was set.
/etc/sysconfig/network/dhcp and 'rcnetwork restart' helps.
Is this the same as '/etc/init.d/network restart'? Thank you already for your help! Patrick
