I do not understand where it comes from. Following this report, the
errors are reported by the http client module, the fetcher part. But it
does not make any sense. The HTTP user agent object is created
separated in every forked process.

Further, I think there are bad things happening with your connection,
see
Sat Oct 8 13:01:18 2005|127.0.0.1|debug: Header sent: 500 (Internal Server Error) Can't connect to debian.debian.zugschlus.de:80 (Bad hostname 'debian.debian.zugschlus.de')

So where does the DNS error come from? Broken nscd or something like
that? libc6 upgrade without restartint services?

Eduard.
