Hello. I'm having a problem with names resolving incorrectly. The situation: Suppose I am mymachine.isp.com. Now I do an nslookup on a domain that doesn't exist (say, red.herring.com). Instead of telling me the machine doesn't exist, I'm getting an answer back of red.herring.com.isp.com. In other words, my domain is being appended to the full name of the invalid domain and then returned as a vaid result.
This came to light after I noticed mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] were coming back with a 'domain loops back to myself' error and an address given of [EMAIL PROTECTED] My /etc/resolv.conf has a single line: search isp.com, then two valid nameserver addresses. The problem does not occur on other machines in the isp.com domain, so it's something specific to my configuration. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to start? Should I perhaps replace the search: isp.com line with domain: isp.com? All help appreciated. Thanks, Ian _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
