Hello

arptables-save tries to convert any IP addresses to DNS names.
Is this the expected behaviour?

If it is the expected behaviour, is there any way that it can be disabled as
arptables-save hangs until the DNS lookup times out if DNS is not available?

Steven.

Like iptables, use -n together with -L.

BTW, please, for user oriented question user go to
netfilter@vger.kernel.org.

Sorry, I misread your email. You were talking about arptables-save,
not arptables itself.

commit 0d0d618038aa1137d6f373db8ab201f03234959f
Author: Bart De Schuymer <bdschuym@pandora.be>

    - use -n so that IP addresses are resolved (similar to iptables'
      behaviour)

It seems that change is already in the git tree.

Upgrade to current git snapshot or wait for that release that Bart
promised.
