Details
I have a computer with a non-permanent network connection. So I use the PPP
dialup program wvdial 1.41 (see http://www.worldvisions.ca/wvdial/). Here's the
problem:
When I'm not connected, /etc/resolv.conf does not contain a nameserver address.
If Mozilla tries to make a DNS request then, this will of course fail. The
problem is that Mozilla does not update this after I have got a connection and
/etc/resolv.conf contains a valid nameserver address. Any DNS request still
fails. Mozilla does not retry to get the nameserver address if it could not be
determined before.
