javaguy Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Something I've noticed since upgrading to 10.1 is that web page load really slowly, no matter which browser I'm using. I mean painfully slowly. And one thing I've noticed is that every time it loads a page it says "resolving host whatever.com..." for a long time before it begins to load the page. It's not great that it takes a long time to look up a host's IP, but also, although I'm certainly not an expert, I was kind of under the impression that when I navigate to a web site it only has to look up the IP the first time and that, at least within the same browser session anyway, it would remember the IP for subsequent page requests to that site. Am I missing something essential? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 post /etc/resolv.conf, please. Oh, and /etc/modprobe.conf (for other people's reference - to check whether ipv6 is enabled). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianw1974 Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 (edited) I noticed your search line above your name servers. I don't have anything similar on my config. It could be that it takes a while as it's attempting to connect to what you have here. Try editing the file (resolv.conf) and placing a # at the beginning of the search woh.rr.com, and see if that makes a difference? I guess this was added when you configured the network?

javaguy Posted May 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Okay, I put a # in front of the search line, and that seemed to help. Later I rebooted and seemed to notice it was slow again. Sure enough, the old version was back. Any idea what process is setting up this file and how I can stop it from putting the search line in?
