Re: [nv-l] Netmon not responding

Paul,

It doesn't seem to be that.  I just ran an ethereal trace and I can see the
DNS lookups fine.  There are not that many of them and they usually get a
response in about 1ms.

Regards,
Alan.

Sounds like a possible DNS issue, I would make sure that your
nameserver is responding properly.
