I've finally got round to testing this:

# dig @127.0.0.1 pear.php.net

; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> @127.0.0.1 pear.php.net
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached


This is with 8.8.8.8 in the resolv.conf (server's been restarted since I added it too)

Interestingly, if I try to ping 8.8.8.8 I can't reach it either. Definitely a peculiarity

Just to clarify, is this thread about something which you are able
to resolve when you set 8.8.8.8 as your resolver, but not when you
use the BitFolk default resolvers?

I think that it was mostly finger-trouble, to be honest. Defo from my part! ;-)


If so I would really like to know.

Cool, will let you know if there is a genuine problem, at least backed with some useful debug info.
