Subject: [ruby-talk:11164] THE solution to:  TCPSocket.open() lasts 2 minutes

And THE solution was (at least for me):
I had to reduce (not to say *castrate*) resolv.conf to contain a single
"nameserver"-entry!
I used to have a "search helbling.ch" and three alternative
"nameserver"-entries. 

The problem (question) remains:
Why does dnsquery and ruby-TCPSocket(.open(...)) have problems with this
kinda resolv.conf content. 

Thanks for all your hints and tips
