I have configured linux server as local dns server (practice level).
I have given the IP and hostname details in /etc/hosts
Code:
-bash-3.00# cat /etc/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.78 dummy.set.com loghost
192.168.1.57 cent.set.com # dns server
192.168.1.67 next.set.com
-bash-3.00# grep hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf
# DNS for hosts lookups, otherwise it does not use any other naming service.
# “hosts:” and “services:” in this file are used only if the
hosts: files dns
# before searching the hosts databases.
I have given following entries in solaris client /etc/resolv.conf
-bash-3.00# cat /etc/resolv.conf
search set.com
nameserver 192.168.1.57
-bash-3.00# svcs -a | grep dns
disabled 8:38:39 svc:/network/dns/server:default
online 8:39:14 svc:/network/dns/client:default
-bash-3.00# nslookup dummy.set.com
Server: 192.168.1.57
Address: 192.168.1.57#53
** server can’t find dummy.set.com.set.com: REFUSED

The Linux resolver queries all nameservers in the order they are listed in /etc/resolver.conf.
If a nameserver times out, it advances on to the following nameserver.
But, if a nameserver returns "not found" (NXDOMAIN) it stops.
This behaviour is problematic when you need to resolve names from... (0 Replies)

desproxy-dns
desproxy-dns(1) User Commands desproxy-dns(1)NAME
desproxy-dns - DNS for dynamic connections
SYNOPSIS
desproxy-dns dns_server proxy_host proxy_port
OPTIONS
None
DESCRIPTION
If you have direct DNS access then you don't need to do anything else. You know you have direct DNS access if you can resolve host names
to IP addresses.
NOTE: as desproxy-dns listens in port 53 (which is less than 1024) you may need administrator privileges to exec desproxy-dns (in fact if
you are running UN*X, you actually have to run desproxy-dns as root).
OK, so you have a dns server accessible now. But your computer doesn't know anything about that. You must configure your network
accordingly (again, need to be root in UN*X).
Edit /etc/resolv.conf and add the line "nameserver 127.0.0.1". You don't have to restart anything. Just test ping and see if it works.
ENVIRONMENT
None.
FILES
None.
