UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Guys ,

Am using Linux - Red Hat 6.1 .

My DNS and nslookup command was working fine and ppl. can resolve through this server .

but i changed something in /etc/named.conf , that stopped the DNS .

The named proccess is working , but nslookup command is not , i get this error message :

*** Can't find server name for address x.y.z.c : No response from server
*** Default servers are not available

Please help me , becouse i can not browse anything on the internet .

Thanks Alot

Hi there,

Can you post de content of named.conf.

options {

directory "/var/named";
allow-transfer { x.y.z.c ; };



};
zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA"{
type master;
file "127.0.0";
};
zone "." {
type hint;
file "db.cache";
};
zone "xyz.com"{
type slave;
file "accessme.com";
masters{
};
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"{
type slave;
file "db.local";
masters{
};
};


Kindly note the i used ( x.y.z.c ) instead of IP address , and xyz instead of the domain .

Thanks

You don't have your masters designated (IP address) and the format may be wrong (Check example at Mr.DNS ).

You posted:

zone "xyz.com"{
type slave;
file "accessme.com";
masters{
};
};



zone "mydomain.com" in
{
type slave ; masters { 10.14.1.20; } ;
file "slave-zones/db.mydomain.com" ;
} ;
