Summary0002715: massive notice when connecting two servers in some situations
DescriptionI've found that there is a problem of somesort with the IRCD, when i'm attempting to connect two servers when there has been a change to the IP of the other server.

The problem only occures when acutaly trying to connect the servers. Usualy what i have to do to fix this problem is to rehash (if not set to autoconnect) to stop the notices, i then do a "dns clear" wich resets the cash, reconnecting after that is fine.

I would not have a problem with this, except the notice loops and goes on forever, flooding the opers and pretty much everyone off the server. here is an example of the error message below between the servers.

[1:34pm] -Irc.intensitycomputers.com- *** Notice -- Hostname irc.cmacomputers.com is unknown for server Irc.cmacomputers.com (!?).
[1:34pm] -Irc.intensitycomputers.com- *** Notice -- Hostname irc.cmacomputers.com is unknown for server Irc.cmacomputers.com (!?).

I don't mind the error if it only occured once....
Steps To ReproduceI *believe* that if you change the hostname field of a connect block, rehash, then reconnect without clearing DNS will cause this

I'm pretty sure this is fixed in CVS, when I did a complete resolver rewrite :).

Of course, if it later turns out not to (eg: when you still get it with 3.2.4 - whenever that is released), let us know! :)
