Question Centos server 6.6 /etc/resolv.conf info


Hi

I want to ask if the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf are working like:

Check first one and if not working it goes to the second one and then the third one?

Also after do that changes is a /etc/init.d/network restart enough to start using the new one on top of the file?

Do i have to flush any dns cache and how?

And last question how can i verify which one my Centos 6.6 server is using after the changes?

Thanks

See 'man resolv.conf'.

Check if you run nscd or caching name server service and restart it.

By default 'dig' will display a statistics section, see the ";; SERVER: " section at the bottom of the answer.

OK. Run:
Code:
( awk '/^nameserver/ {print "dig -t any google.com @"$2}' /etc/resolv.conf|/bin/sh -x 2>&1; dig -t any google.com @8.8.8.8 2>&1 ) | tee /tmp/dig.txt
and post "/tmp/dig.txt" contents.

So it does work (BTW: 4 out of 6 Domain Name Servers I know but 164.124.101.88 and 211.238.186.4 are korean ones and I see no particular reason why you should use those, especially not as 1st and 2nd entries.) and you can try the same query for "mirrorlist.centos.org" instead of "google.com". *BTW[1]: also check your DNS settings in your /stc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files.

That's the problem that i can't solve

It seems to work but it doesn't as if i use the Google ones or from OpenDNS or from Level3 are not working.....

I can ping them but if i do a simple wget i got can't resolve problem And i have the same problem also with the yum update...

If i change them to the 164.124.101.88 all working great but is not fast as 5ms as the others, i am getting about 280ms

No idea why

My network card settings:

DEVICE="eth0"
BOOTPROTO="static"
DNS1="8.8.8.8" <---If i am not wrong this one is not active as i have disabled the NM_CONTROLLED="no"
GATEWAY="37.187.xxx.xxx"
HWADDR="0C:C4:7A:02:CAE"
IPADDR="37.187.xxx.xxx"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="yes"
TYPE="Ethernet"
UUID="cb7ea12f-2ab7-45a1-896f-8ff948d7061c"

37.187.0.0 is OVH France so I see no technical reason why a korean DNS server would be faster.
For now concentrate on using DNS servers that work and not look for the fastest one.
Post output of the "awk" routine but change "google.com" to "mirrorlist.centos.org".

Maybe a cache or csf/iptables problem?

Please edit your /etc/resolv.conf and use only (and in this order) these name servers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4, 208.67.220.220, 208.67.222.222.
Remove or comment out any other name servers.
Temporarily (until we find the solution) add the IP addresses 72.232.223.58, 204.15.73.243, 64.235.47.134 to your /etc/hosts for "mirrorlist.centos.org".

Restart the "nscd" service or any caching name server service if you run them.
Now try to run 'yum check-update'.
Also please post output of
Code:
iptables-save
and obfuscate your IP address if necessary.

It is your server so you should know if you run say nscd or a caching name server (or not). If you are unsure what services are running run 'netstat -antulpe' or 'chkconfig --list|grep "$(runlevel|awk '{print $2}')n";'. (You do not have to show me the output.)

Then you do not have a firewall loaded. That is not a good practice.

Good you did a 'yum clean all'.

So eventually it does load the updates. And the fact it reads "No Packages marked for Update" is due to repository protection: it does not mean there are no updates or that it was not able to fetch them.


So now back to the initial problem: did this problem occur always or did it start at some time? If the latter, can you trace back what changes were made?

I don't use a caching name server and the no output is maybe related that i stop csf when the problem happen so just to be sure taht is not block anything related....

Well all was running fine and 4 days ago i run yum update to the server and i update a few new files and i got a new kernel also but i was not reboot to activate it....

So after that a few hours ago i try to use wget to get a file from github....

I got an error that can't resolve github and then i test the same wget on another server from the same datacenter and all was fine....

Then i try to run yum update again and i got the same errors as above and a few users start to complain about not getting emails from postfix when they register to my forum

Then i try to ping : ping yahoo.com and i got can't resolve host so i think something is wrong with the nameserver 8.8.8.8 that i was use....

Changing this to 8.8.4.4 doesn't help as i got the same results.

Then i notice that i got to:

hosts file:

::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

and on nameservers i got a line:

search ip-37-187-151.eu

I thought that this can happen if it can't use ipv4 and try to connect using ipv6...

So i remove this lines and try with open dns and level3 but nothing then i got the korean dns and all working now but i am getting 290ms instead of 5ms from google.....

That's all

It seems a global problem and not related to yum or wget or postfix as changing nameservers to Korean ones all are fine....

Really thanks for your help.... !

The one who fix this for me and give me this korean dns told me:
