Re: DNS running but not responding

Jean,

Also do you have a domain name and name servers in your "/etc/resolv.conf" file?

Re: DNS running but not responding

yes I have inserted my domains and I have mentioned as a nameserver the IP of the machine itself. Correct me if I am wrong.

Re: DNS running but not responding

If this server is a client server then you would put the names of the DNS server you are getting your information from in the resolv.conf file. I haven't set up any DNS servers themselves, so if this is a DNS Server then there may be a difference.
