A possible solution for failed DNS lookups on 10.3
Authored by: jhegarty on Nov 15, '04 08:31:05AM

I've had 10.3 since last April, and only started getting DNS issues in the last couple of weeks ... so it must be due to a recent update.

I have *exactly* the same problem as described: sites error once, and then work the second time. Another poster suggested that this might only be with "new" sites for which the resolved address is no longer cached, but I've had the problem even with regularly visited sites (like google.com).

It's rather annoying to have to put in the DNS servers, especially for those of us on-the-go with an iBook (or PowerBook). I have no idea what the DNS servers are at work or on various open networks around campus and at coffee shops.

I suppose all we can really do is wait until there's another update out which fixes the problem.
