           Summary: without local gateway, a combi-server works unbearable
                    slowly
           Product: Skolelinux
           Version: lenny
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Configuration
        AssignedTo: debian-edu@lists.debian.org
        ReportedBy: debalance@debian.org


I have set up a combi-server from the leny-test dvd without any network access.
The installation works but takes a while.

The problem is afterwards:
using lwat with iceweasel is a pain in the ass, every 2nd click makes it hang
for 3-30 seconds. konqueror is not much better.

Even 'su' takes quite a while after having entered the correct root-password
untill the root-prompt appears.

I believe the cause is the powerdns configuration.
It looks up a name, get's the IP, but starts 2 more (recursive?) tries to
resolve it, which time out after several seconds.

Having a gateway and internet access, this timeout doesn't happen and
everything works nice and smooth.
