Strange DNS Behavior on GPA14
Shortly after I got my OG
, I wrote some scripts to download podcasts. This worked fine for quite a while, but since I installed GPAxx, it doesn't work. I don't know whether it's GPA, the kernel, or just Gingerbread, but I can no longer wget files by domain name. It used to work on earlier BBs, and in Sapphire, but now that I've switched to GPA, whenever I try my scripts, or new commands, it goes like this:
=================================
# wget http://www.domain.com/path/file.ext
wget: bad address 'www.domain.com'
=================================
However, if I ping the domain first to get the IP address of the domain, and then use that in wget, it'll work:
=================================
# ping www.domain.com
ping www.domain.com (74.125.65.105) ...
...normal ping lines here...
>break<
# wget http://74.125.65.105/path/file.ext
downloading file.ext
...100%...
done
#
=================================
The link to the files is still the same, and I can download them if I replace Domain with IP, but it's like wget doesn't know how to resolve a domain name into an IP address anymore. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Urugami
