Hello all, not sure if it is postgres or a perl issue, but I´m having a weird behavior on the perl gethostbyname function call on plperlu running on postgresql 8.3.7, perl 5.10.0. Is simply returns "1" instead of the normal array of values.

Everything works fine on a postgres 8.2.x with perl 5.8.8. And, even stranger, gethostbyname works fine in the problematic server IF I run it outside postgresql (in the shell).

Using Fedora 10 on the problematic server.

Does any one have any idea of whats the problem with perl running inside postgresql 8.3.7?

Thanks!
