[lug] Suspicous: "host"/"DNS" Showing Odd Results (Fedora)

[stimits at comcast.net]

I wouldn't believe it either but I've verified my firefox and watched in the stack frame what is causing the lock. When the name switches mid stream it locks. Fedora 27. Note that when the name shows up constant (regardless of what it shows up as), then there is no lockup. This occurs only if multiple queries running simultaneously use different names for the same IP.

I think this DNS thing has sent you on a wild goose chase and it has nothing to do with your Firefox crashes.

I assume that's on a Linux? I've been using Firefox as packaged by Fedora 28 and I have not had any problems with it.
