Hi all,

I'm using Microsoft Windows XP and Wireshark 1.2.5 which is the latest stable version.

I have a problem with name resolution for network layer.

I put a hosts file in both place (%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Wireshark\ and c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\)
I activated Network Layer Name Resolution, with concurrent DNS (500) as default parameter, and then, name resolution works (almost) perfectly.
That mean that wireshark search correctly the ip/name association:
- first in the hosts files
- and then I guess to DNS servers.

The issue is the following:
When I disconnect my network cable, that mean that I'm not able to reach a DNS server,  and I open a wireshark trace, wireshark is freezing, and I need to stop the processus by hand.
Looks like threading for DNS request is associated with trace display... and if one fails, the other too.

Is it a bug or a misconfiguration from my part? Does someone know how to solve that problem?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best Regards
