ok guys i am sorry for my last attempt .. lets make it clear my DNS server name is test.com . if i enter command dig www.test.com the output is shown like this

Quote:

[root@# dig www.test.com

; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc2 <<>> www.test.com
;; global options: printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 13596

and my resolv.conf is this:

Quote:

vi /etc/resolv.conf
; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script

search test.com

nameserver 192.168.100.10
nameserver 192.168.100.128

if i entered

Quote:

nslookup www.test.com
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 192.168.100.10, trying next server

My question is why there is nothing in ANSWER & AUTHORITY section? and one more think if i use dig from another station is work fine.. please help me to understand the problem.

thanks in advance

Did you try to remove the 3 WWW as this is just a symbolic link on your server side.

Code:

dig test.com
