To List,
Can someone please let me know the status of this issue? After a new
WIN32 version of ADNS was announced on April 7th (see below), I was
expecting a new WIN32 version of Ethereal to follow which incorporated
the new ADNS version. The new ADNS version was needed to eliminate DNS
traffic storms that we isolated to Ethereal. We have had a few users
install the new ADNS DLL, but there are many more that we were hoping
could be corrected via a new Ethereal install.
When should we expect the next WIN32 version of Ethereal to be released?
Will it include the new WIN32 ADNS version? If there will be a long
delay, we can work to independently propagate the new ADNS DLL to all
our WIN32 Ethereal users.
Regards, David

Hi,
David H Wescott contacted me and reported that Ethereal for Windows
caused a DNS "storm" while resolving reverse DNS lookups. I checked my
port of the ADNS library, and found two bugs that together could cause
this problem. I've made a new revision of the Win32 ADNS library, that
is confirmed to fix the problem.
The corrected adns_dll.dll (Windows version ID 1.0.0.3) is backwards
compatible with the one currently used in Ethereal.
