That's a good Avenue to explore I will see if I can find any differences Tim Metzinger 703.963.3015

One thing to consider, though: on Windows, resolvers tend to be assigned *per-interface*. It's possible that you have some interface that has assigned resolvers that you can't reach (due to firewall rules, routing issues, etc.). The resolvers that get chosen may then be dependent on the binding order of the interfaces, or other factors. For that matter, you might be trying to use IPv6 resolvers, even though IPv6 may not be routable from your LAN. Check out ipconfig /all. - Kevin On Tue, Oct 23, 2018 at 6:22 PM Timothy Metzinger <tim.metzin...@outlook.com<mailto:tim.metzin...@outlook.com>> wrote: I have two windows 10 pro boxes, both with Bind 9.12.3 tools installed. On one machine, entering “dig” by itself gives me back the root server list as expected. On the other machine, I get an error that says no name servers could be contacted. However, if I specify the local name server on that second machine by entering dig @192.168.1.250<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2F192.168.1.250&data=02%7C01%7C%7C5791d242f3c348dc778908d639393a76%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636759315284857689&sdata=uBRptuFKaxPxt9W5EBasx0iVcNuzXgBoV6K9s14Y2ZY%3D&reserved=0>, I get the root server list. My logic says that since I can talk to the recursive server, I don’t have a firewall issue. Instead, BIND is not finding the list of name servers (by reading the registry)? I tried putting in a resolv.conf file in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc with contents: nameserver 192.168.1.250 nameserver 192.168.1.251 nameserver 8.8.8.8 And that made no difference. Running the command prompt as an administrator makes no difference. At this point I’m stumped and welcome any suggestions.
