Re: Slow DNS Lookup (4TH POSTING)

["Leonard Leblanc" <lleblanc@emergeknowledge.com>]

When i type nslookup www.emergeknowledge.com i get the following:

server: localhost
address: 127.0.0.1

name: ns.emergeknowledge.com
address: 64.59.157.18
aliases: www.emergeknowledge.com

and nslookup 64.59.157.18 gives me

server: localhost
address: 127.0.0.1

name: 64-59-157-18.ivideon.com
address: 64.59.157.18

my dns lookup from my linux box isn't slow at all.  it works fine...and my
resolv.conf has the following:
search emergeknowledge.com
nameserver 127.0.0.1

thanks
