On my new CentOS 6, KDE 4, running WireShark I see what appears
to be frequent nonsensical DNS queries, for example:
   "settings-personal.desktop" and "settings-system.desktop".
The DNS response is always:"No such name".  Do tell!
These appear especially when I click on things on the KDE
menus.  On my old CentOS 5 box, on the same LAN, I see no
such thing.  I note that I have replaced the original
/etc/hosts with my own.  Might these have been resolved
in the original?

Thanks for your comments.
Mike.
