<...snip...> I would file a bug on it. I have FC10 Firefox-3 and it does the same thing, It can't find server to Linuxtoday.com and lxer.com, but it will find yahoo.com, redhat.com etc. If I get on my FC8 box and Firefox, it has no problems of finding those same Servers.
Just adding a "me-too" here, like mike I assumed it was something on my end (didn't bother investigating).
Jim could you please send over the bz number so that we may all pitch in with information ?
thanks,

seems there is a ipv6 slowdown with comcast's dns servers. if you use firefox you can stop ipv6 lookups by opening a tab in firefox and typing:
about:config
type: network.dns.disableIPv6;false set it to true and your dns lookups will take off.
if you use ssh, create an alias for ssh that looks like: alias ssh='ssh -4' in your .bash_profile, this will force using only ipv4 dns lookups. I don't like passing on these workarounds because you may forget what you did when the it is fixed, but maybe log it somewhere so you can undo when this is fixed.
