Name resolution on SuSe (SLES 9)

Borut Kurnik — Wed, 15 Sep 2004 09:32:28 GMT

Hello!

I've got testing environment with name server
serving aaa.si (10.250.0.0/16) and bbb.local (172.28.0.0/16) zones.

The name server has 172.28.16.60 phy. address & 10.250.0.1 virt. address.

Platforms: *BSD, AIX, RedHat, Fedora & Debian

No problems so far.

I 've recently installed SuSe SLES 9 on one of the hosts.

host: x.aaa.si 10.250.17.211

nsswitch.conf -> hosts: files dns

resolv.conf ->
----------------------------------
domain aaa.si
search aaa.si bbb.local
nameserver 10.250.0.1
----------------------------------

everything is ok with hosts in aaa.si domain, but
bbb.local host will not.

dig @10.250.0.1 y.bbb.local works, but ping, ssh, ... and eveything else freezes.

AIX based host z.aaa.si (10.250.17.98) works without problems
resolving both zones, so did the x.aaa.si with RHEL 3 installed.

Any hints, please?

Thanks,

Borut

shall you try as,
resolv.conf ->
----------------------------------
domain aaa.si
search aaa.si
search bbb.local
nameserver 10.250.0.1
----------------------------------

Is it trying now. And more, see search part of resolv.conf 5 man page, so that, it is stating as if the domain name is in remote then it will take a lot of time to do and some time it will get timedout too!
