name lookups suddenly no longer work for me on F11. I have not used this machine since 12th July,
but some updates (e.g. rpcbind) have occurred. Now I have big problems; e.g. evolution,
thunderbird and ssh do not work. I can force ssh to work by typing the IP by hand.
Firefox could not connect to host. But I discovered that if I set network.dns.disableIPv6
then firefox works.
So I blame IPv6, and examine my settings. There is a toggle box in system-config-network,
for IPv6, but whichever way I set it I get:
/sbin/ifconfig eth0

charles zeitler may have had a similar issue a few weeks ago?
Ideas anyone please?
