Hello debian-users,
I have run into an interesting issue with the DNS resolution on only
_one_ of my debian lenny systems on my network.
I have confirmed that this system has working network connectivity but I
would like to restore the ability to query DNS records from my local DNS
server which is also in my case my network gateway. Additionally I can
ssh into the system easily while connected to the same local network
10.254.2.0/24
The working (as in with other systems on my network) DNS and router is
at 10.254.2.254/24. The IP statically set for the debian system is
10.254.2.1/24
How is this machine configured differently than the other two?
Some info from this AMD64 architecture system is below.
r...@localhost:~# cat /etc/debian_version
5.0.4
r...@localhost:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain site
search site
Why these two lines?
Why *before* the nameserver?
nameserver 10.254.2.254
How are you populating this file?
r...@localhost:~# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use

br200
Snippet from /etc/network/interfaces:
# LAN bridge
iface eth1.200 inet manual
auto br200
iface br200 inet static
address 10.254.2.1
Why the non-standard interface name?
network 10.254.2.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 10.254.2.255
gateway 10.254.2.254
bridge-ports eth1.200
Why not add a dns-nameservers to "iface br200"?

Can you ping 10.254.2.254? I'm sure you can, but just asking.

Try mtr-tiny instead.
