Hi,

The problem The Doctor has with innfeed (which cannnot send any articles) is written
in his logs:

Jan 30 11:44:48 gallifrey julien[732]: innfeed[16329]: ME starting at Fri Jan 30 11:44:48 2009\n (INN 2.5.0 (20090130 snapshot))
Jan 30 11:44:48 gallifrey julien[732]: innfeed[16329]: loading /usr/home/julien/inn/install2.5/etc/innfeed.conf
Jan 30 11:44:51 gallifrey julien[732]: innfeed[16329]: test can't resolve hostname news.trigofacile.com: Invalid value for ai_flags
Jan 30 11:44:51 gallifrey julien[732]: innfeed[16329]: test spooling no active connections


In innfeed/host.c, we have:
    hints.ai_flags = AI_NUMERICSERV | AI_ADDRCONFIG;

What should be used?
AI_NUMERICSERV seems not to be defined in netdb.h (thus set to 0 by a #ifndef).
AI_ADDRCONFIG is defined.


Neither does AI_NUMERICHOST | AI_ADDRCONFIG work.



It is also strange that "host" hangs after putting the results.
I have to kill it.  Maybe it is related (?)

gallifrey% host news.trigofacile.com
news.trigofacile.com has address 91.121.26.68
