Can't create outgoing socket: UnknownHostException

Thu Jun 5 02:40:00 GMT 2003

I've traced this down somewhat -- and it's actually a problem with glibc
somewhere. I have reproduced the problem with a simple C test program.
Thanks for the help,

That being the case, you have networking. Something else caused the
name
lookup to fail.
I have no idea what might have gone wrong. Random guess: Some libc
weirdness causes libnss* to fail. Feel free to debug.

No, it's normally enabled on any *-linux-* target.
