Hey everyone, I've noticed that when I do a dig command, I don't get any authoritative records back. For example a dig to cnn.com just yields:
At first I thought it was because my caching server already had it, but I tried a multitude of sites, and none return any authoritative records. How is this?
Even with the +authority switch it doesn't return anything. Is it possible the ISP can block this ? That was my first thought, or is there something else at play?

Hello,
I've created new DNS servers and changed all of the clients /etc/resolv.conf to point to them, but when I check the old DNS logs, I see that the clients are still querying it. Does anybody know why?

Hello,
I'm using CentOS 5.3, and I connect to a VPN in order to work. The problem is that I'm constantly accessing things on the local network and the remote network. But once I'm connected to the VPN I can't access local addresses by name, I have to use the ip-address.

I am trying to setup a CentOS 6.2 server that will be doing 3 things DHCP, DNS & Samba for a very small office (2 users). The idea being this will replace a very old Win2k server. The users are all windows based clients so only the server will be Linux based.

I have read many tutorials on bind and i understand the A,MX, CNAME records.
Internally, on a LAN we can install bind and create all these records and we can tell all PC and servers to use this bind as DNS server.that's fine.
On the Internet, when we have purchased a valid domain like... (5 Replies)

dns_tree
dns_browse(1) General Commands Manual dns_browse(1)NAME
dns_tree -- command-line frontend to dig
SYNOPSIS
dns_tree [-f] [-v] [-d] [-t TYPE] [-m MATCH] DNS_domain
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the dns_tree command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
dns_tree is a program that works as a front-end to dig. Given a specific domain dns_tree will make several dig invocations to fetch a
zone and it will format the output in in a somewhat sensible hierarchical style (a tree).
Information extracted from the DNS relies on being possible to fetch a zone through a zone transfer. If the DNS servers for the requested
domain do not allow file transfers dns_tree will not be able to obtain information from the zone.
All data obtain is cached in ~/.DNS_BROWSE with an approximation of the usual DNS caching rules. Remove all files in that directory to
prematurely flush the cache.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-t TYPE Show only records of TYPE. This argument can be repeated to indicate multiple types. Use the "all" type to print all the known
types.
-m MATCH Show only records in which the first component matches the PERL regexpt MATCH.
-h Show summary of options.
-v Enable verbose mode. All DNS requests are printed in the standard error.
-d Enable debug output. Presents internal information of the program
-f Override warnings (force).
SEE ALSO
dig (1), dns_browse (1), perlrequick (1).
