--------------------------------------------------------------
When attempting to create a new InitialDirContext using the com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory, the following exception occurs:
Caused by: javax.naming.NamingException: Failed instantiate InitialContextFactory com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory from classloader ModuleClassLoader for Module "deployment.test-case.ear.test-web.war:main" from Service Module Loader

16:36:36,023 INFO  [org.jboss.web] (MSC service thread 1-5) registering web context: /test

Here is my relevant code snippet:
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put("java.naming.factory.initial", "com.sun.jndi.dns.DnsContextFactory");
env.put("java.naming.authoritative", "false");
env.put("com.sun.jndi.dns.recursion", "true");
env.put("com.sun.jndi.dns.timeout.initial", timeoutProp);
env.put("com.sun.jndi.dns.timeout.retries", "1");
env.put("java.naming.provider.url", providerProp);
DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);

I found  http://community.jboss.org/message/608523#608523 this thread which seemed very similar to the problem that I am running into, but setting the "jboss.modules.system.pkgs" property to "com.sun.jndi.dns" had no effect.
I'm running JBoss AS 7.0.0.Final, using the 1.6.0_26 JRE.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
