You know, it's amazing how little information you've given us.
Although, I'm no DNS guru I have configured my DNS server and, I far as I
can tell, it works correctly. If you need help, for starters, post your:
/etc/HOSTNAME
/etc/resov.conf
/etc/named.conf
/var/named/localhost (or whatever it's called)
/var/named/127 (or whatever it's called)

Subject: [expert] OT DNS Server and nslookup Problems
I am trying to setup a new DNS server under Mandrake 7, to replace our
existing one currently running on Solaris 2.6.
So far as I can see I have done everything correctly. When I try to
ping a node using the new domain name & server (via resolv.conf) it
works as expected. However, nslookup returns the following error:
*** Can't find server name for address 10.132.112.245: No response from
server
*** Default servers are not available
(I have never used bind 8 before). What would be causing this?
Brian.
