[indiana-discuss] DNS problem in 2008.05 RC2

[Vitaly]

Hello!
I have noticed a problem with DNS in OpenSolaris 2008.05 in WMWare Fusion virtual machine.

Network works

$ ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
	inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 
pcn0: flags=201004843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,IPv4,CoS> mtu 1500 index 2
	inet 192.168.212.128 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.212.255
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
	inet6 ::1/128 


nslookup works:
$ nslookup opensolaris.org
Server:		192.168.212.2
Address:	192.168.212.2#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:	opensolaris.org
Address: 72.5.123.5


But other programs cannot resolve hostnames, for example, wget says:

$ wget opensolaris.org
--13:13:26--  http://opensolaris.org/
           => `index.html'
Resolving opensolaris.org... failed: node name or service name not known.


The problem occurs both on live CD and on the installed system.
