I'm having a hard time understanding how bug 13243 has anything to do with this bug.

duplicate of 13243. (yes, that's a later bug. but it documents the problem more concisely.)

<?php
  $domain = "www.yahoo.com";
  echo gethostbyname($domain) . "<br>\n";
  print_r (gethostbynamel($domain));
?>

www.yahoo.com
Array ()

As I've thought about this some, I believe I started having problems with this only after upgrading to 4.06. It may have worked with 4.05 and I know it was working for me with 4.04plx Maybe this has something to do with my Linux Disto? I'm using RedHat 7.0

Thanks for your thoughts. For now, I'm just hard coding the ip address I need, so it's not like this is bogging me down.

Could you please try gethostbynamel() with the same
hostname?

(these both work for me just fine..)

> Can you access the internet from a browser?

Yes, I can resolve any hostname using nslookup, host, etc. This machine accesses the internet just fine.

ie. from the command line:

[hydro <email protected> htdocs]$ host calc.intershipper.net
calc.intershipper.net is a nickname for www.intershipper.net
www.intershipper.net has address 216.58.153.11
[hydro <email protected> htdocs]$

but from PHP
<?php
echo gethostbyname ("calc.intershipper.net");
?>

calc.intershipper.net

> Make sure your nameserver's are setup correctly.

To the best of my knowledge, they are.
