Thanks for the reply,
Seems it really was the missing "domain" parameter in the resolv.conf.
If someone needs it, here is the working configuration -- resolv.conf:
Code:
domain homeworld.local
search homeworld.local
nameserver 192.168.0.10
nameserver 192.168.0.1
and zone file:
Code:
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA server.homeworld.local. tech.homeworld.local. (
;
2012090902 ; Serial
7200 ; Refresh
120 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800 ) ; Default TTL
;
IN NS server.homeworld.local.
machine-mother IN A 192.168.0.2
server IN A 192.168.0.10
nexus IN CNAME server
router IN A 192.168.0.1
On a side note, it does pay off having a machine w/o graphical environment. Configuring all this stuff in openSuSe via the GUI was easy, but... uninspiring. During these two days I've learned more about DNS than in the past two years.
Anyway, thanks again.
Sincerely yours, rrije.
