Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: thomas.aho@bluewin.ch QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=334710) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=334710) A log from Wireshark, which shows the two DNS queries and answers. User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091201 Firefox/3.5.6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) When a DNS query is made by for example starting an ftp-session, or opening a page in a browser, SuSE makes two DNS queries to the DNS server. In Wireshark these queries appear as: "Standard query A ftp.suse.de" and "Standard query AAAA ftp.suse.de". If the DNS only gives an answer to the A-query, but not to the AAAA-query, then the operation fails. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use a router which does not support DNS AAAA queries. Actual Results: The problem appears already when doing the installation, as SuSE is not able to contact the download-server. Expected Results: Since a valid DNS answer arrives, SuSE should use this. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
