-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, all
I'm trying to set up a DNS server on my home network. I want to use DNS because (a) I want to create aliases and (b) the DNS server in the modem my ISP provides doesn't work half the time. I've studied the O'Reilly book "DNS and Bind", double- and triple-checked my named.conf and zone files, scoured the web but I can't find any solution to my problem. The problem is, when I issue 'nslookup' on a machine that's listed in my zone file, I get one of two errors: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ $ nslookup filch Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 ** server can't find filch: NXDOMAIN [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ $ nslookup filch.dreampossible.ca Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 ** server can't find filch.dreampossible.ca: SERVFAIL [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ $ 'filch' is listed in the zone file for dreampossible.ca. syslog does not indicate any errors, either on reloading the named server or when nslookup is performed. Would it be appropriate to post my zone and conf files here, or should I tar them up and put them in an ftp site? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! - -- Jim Hyslop Dreampossible: Better software.
