Hey,
I'm runing Debian etch with BIND9 on it. I'm following the aboutdebian.com tutorial on DNS server. I'm intending to set up my Desktop Debian box as the DNS server for the LAN dns server and Internet Name Resolution server(The IP address of the Desktop used in preffered name server for each work station's TCP/IP configuration)
1, To make is serve as the Internet Name Resolution I make the Debian Desktop's /etc/resolv.conf only have one line "nameserver 127.0.0.1"
2 To make the Desktop server as LAN dns server I configure the following files on the Desktop Debian box:
Quote:
LIJIANG:/etc/bind# more db.mxoffice.in
$TTL 86400
mxoffice.in. IN SOA woody.mxoffice.in. rocky.mxoffice.in. (
2007071558 ; Serial no., based on date
21600 ; Refresh after 6 hours
3600 ; Retry after 1 hour
604800 ; Expire after 7 days
3600 ; Minimum TTL of 1 hour
)

To test out I use my another Unbuntu laptop and changed the /etc/resolv.conf read aa below:
Quote:
lover@lover-laptop:~$ more /etc/resolv.conf
search mxoffice.in
nameserver 192.168.1.55
|
nslookup google.com on the ubuntu laptop gives me the right result but use nslookup to test mxoffice.in gives me the following error:
Quote:
lover@lover-laptop:~$ nslookup mxoffice.in
Server: 192.168.1.55
Address: 192.168.1.55#53
** server can't find mxoffice.in: SERVFAIL
|
Did my LAN dns server set up correctly? Does the above nslookup right way of testing that out? If any of you could give me some assistance, I would really appreciate it?
Blessings,
Rocky
