RE: Which IP to put in mixminiond.conf?



Hmm, that gives a two-folded output:

Note:  nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases.
Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead.  Run nslookup with
the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
Server:         192.168.2.40
Address:        192.168.2.40#53
 
Non-authoritative answer:
mixminion.poboxes.info  canonical name = poboxes.info.
Name:   poboxes.info
Address: 66.152.97.243



(should I remove mixminion.poboxes.info from /etc/hosts?)

Is it possible that the name resolves differently on your internal network
than it does for the rest the world?  What happens when you run "nslookup
mixminion.poboxes.info" on your own computer?
