Hi,

	I'm having a problem on a FreeBSD 4.10 system running BIND
8.3.7 . I don't think its been like this forever, but the only thing
I've done lately to the machine is add a virtual interface (tun1)
to the machine. But for some reason :

-bash-2.05b$ nslookup
Default Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

> 128.90.107.204.in-addr.arpa.
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

*** Request to localhost timed-out

-bash-2.05b$ dig @127.0.0.1 -x 204.107.90.128

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @127.0.0.1 -x 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; res_nsend: Operation timed out


But if I point elsewhere...

-bash-2.05b$ dig @NS1.ISPNETINC.NET -x 204.107.90.128

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @NS1.ISPNETINC.NET -x 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:

But for regular DNS its fine :

-bash-2.05b$ dig @localhost www.freebsd.org

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @localhost www.freebsd.org 
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
