Re: Problems with QuickDNS Pro 3.0.1From: Philip Butler Date: Monday, February 12, 2001
Time: 10:42:09 amNot that this is exactly pertinent to your problem, but I was running QDNS
2.1 on a G4 Server and it crashed at least once a week. I have since moved
it to a old PowerMac running sys 8.6 and have had relatively no crashes. Is
this a similar experience that others have had?

Welcome to my world. I have been sending Macsbug logs to them constantly.
They can't seem to locate the problem. What's interesting is we seem to
crash all week long then on the weekends everything is fine. I think it is
probably a load problem. To tell the truth I am almost ready to go back to
v2. It only crashed about once a week. This is the only app on this machine
which is a B&W G3 350. I have put their support on email notification when
the machine goes down so they could really see how often this is. Of course
with their permission. I do get responses from them that they are working on
it. I have also noticed some domains I can't get to unless I use another DNS
server. That is just starting to show up.
