Subject: telnet to AIX resolv.conf issue

Hi,

We have an AIX machine with DNS entries at resolv.conf. I just found out that using telnet to access AIX, the AIX machine tries to resolve the IP add of the connecting client. In case you dn't have entries in your DNS server, the telnet prompts take too long to appear.

Is this normal or is there a workaround to this?
