I can't reproduce. No name lookups are tried when I enter "www.sl" on the minicli. Anyways, please check your DNS settings. Those lookups shouldn't take long to report errors, even if they are invalid names: $ time host www.sla Host www.sla not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) real 0m2.073s user 0m0.003s sys 0m0.002s $ time host www.sl Host www.sl not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) real 0m0.891s user 0m0.003s sys 0m0.004s Reopen if you can provide more information. Not reopening yet until I get newer build, but nevertheless those resolves happen here and even 'real 0m2.073s' is too much if it blocks my input. if this happens concurrently it would be ok and invisible from me. And it took time here for www.sl because name resolver was not able to get answer from some name server and it just waited unil it timed out. Right now it gives the same answer as yours in about 1-2 sec. But the situation where all authoritive name servers are down for a domain (and the information is not cached anywhere) is not so uncommon and if this blocks my interaction with my computer - it's bad. Ok, let's wait until I can test on newer build. Got KDE CVS from 20040104. minicli hanging while resolving names still happening. Right now for example for www.tigma.ee (it might come back before anybody can test). $ host www.tigma.ee # gives this: ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached after many-many seconds. Me thinks minicli should do name resolving in special thread ... otherwise it locks up (can't interact with user) anyway (be it second, two or ten). And reopening. This is really a problem (mainly usability). Kdesktop is no more mantained. Fortunatly this bug seems not to be valid for KDE 4. Please reopen if this bug is not a kdesktop one (and it is not solved) or it can be reproduced on KDE 4. Bug closed. Kdesktop is no more mantained. |
