Nice
i try the netbd but i found a "bug",i use the testdns.pp provide in the directory of netbd.

hostAddrtostr('www.adeli.fr') give the good 195.167.230.4 answer.
but the
   H:=StrtoHostAddr('195.167.230.4');
   L:=ResolveAddress(H,NAns);
give me 0 result !

i notice that the result for this is provide by dig -x

4.230.167.195.in-addr.arpa. 92  IN      CNAME   4.1-63.230.167.195.in-addr.arpa.
4.1-63.230.167.195.in-addr.arpa. 22892 IN PTR   s4.adeli.fr.

For the resolve unit, it's the same, the unit doesn't like an answer of CNAME for the reverse.. only PTR
