I put together a simple working DNS server and called it new-dns2 with the IP address of 206.117.115.93. My configuration files follow:
[root@new-dns2 ~]# cat /etc/named.conf options { directory "/var/named"; }; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "db.127.0.0"; }; [root@new-dns2 ~]# cat /var/named/db.127.0.0 $TTL 3D @ IN SOA new-dns1.ci.glendale.ca.us mchavoshi.glendaleca.gov. ( 1 ; Serial 8H ; Refresh 2H ; Retry 4W ; Expire 1D) ; Minimum TTL NS new-dns1.ci.glendale.ca.us. 1 PTR localhost. [root@new-dns2 ~]# So, when I query my new DNS server from itself (206.117.115.93), it resolves the name to an IP, but when I query my new DNS server from another Linux box, it fails with the following error message. [root@new-dns2 ~]# nslookup google.com 206.117.115.93 Server: 206.117.115.93 Address: 206.117.115.93#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: google.com Address: 216.58.217.206 [root@new-dns2 ~]# [root@oragrid01 ~]# nslookup google.com 206.117.115.93 Server: 206.117.115.93 Address: 206.117.115.93#53 ** server can't find google.com: REFUSED [root@oragrid01 ~]# I have stopped FireWall on new-dns2, my DNS server: [root@new-dns2 ~]# service iptables status iptables: Firewall is not running. [root@new-dns2 ~]# Can someone please tell me what might be the problem? Many thanks in advance and have a wonderful day/night. Sincerely, Samad Agha
