Description Jobcrazy 2014-02-15 11:49:15 UTC 
Fail to resolve domain name to ip,when I ping a domain,it says ""bad address",my kernel is 3.13.2

it's an old problem,somebody have found that it because the funtion "getaddrinfo" failed in xconnect.c,and gave his own code on the page:http://hankjin.blog.163.com/blog/static/337319372009327101324432/

I need more information. Was that host actually existing?
Could other programs resolve that name?

The host is really exist,and I can't resolve any domain to ip.

The program like ping/tracert/wget in busybox can't work.

I haven't test other program that are not builded in busybox yet

But I boot from my kernel to CentOS,all network program worked(these programs are not builded in busybox).
