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)
