Thanks for the suggestion, that's narrowed it down. The log message took a second or so to appear. On a hunch, I restarted bind (I'm running a local DNS, mostly to give myself extra headaches, I think). Periodically, everything dealing with DNS starts bogging down, restarts usually help. Sure enough, this was the case. Time to start mucking with the DNS server again.... I *know* my configuration is hosed in several ways. -- Karsten M.
