Hello,

I encountered a little problem

My DNS server seems to work perfectly when I try to resolve an address like : nslookup toto.mydns.fr
I get the correct IP address.

But when I try : nslookup toto (without domain)
I don´t get any IP address.

Did I miss something in my DNS configuration ?

Thanks for your help

I hope you understand me and my poor english level ;-)

Regards,


dig toto

do you have:

domain mydns.fr

in /etc/resolv.conf?
