InetSetup doesn't initialise Resolver on RISC OS 3.7 unless "Try name server too" is checked
| Reported by: | Cameron Cawley (3514) | Severity: | Normal |
| Part: | RISC OS: Boot sequence | Release: | |
| Milestone: | Status | Fixed |
Details by Cameron Cawley (3514):
If the “Try name server too” option is checked, Choices:Internet.Startup will contain code to ensure that the Resolver module is loaded on RISC OS 3.7 or earlier, however the option is automatically unchecked when reloading InetSetup if no name servers have been specified, which suggests that this option should be independent of the “Name resolver module” option.

…“ensure that the Resolver module is loaded on RISC OS 3.7 or earlier”
Because Boot$OSVersion increments in 10’s, what the Alias$InetLoadResolver line is actually trying to say is “anything < 3.80 must load Resolver off disc” because everything >= 3.80 has Resolver in ROM.
That aside, please try the attached InetSetup update. Hopefully the fading/ticking makes more sense. It is valid to have no text in the name server boxes and be ticked (the name servers would be expected to be filled by DHCP in that case).
