I got the DNS HowTo and am going thru just like it says. I'm just trying to
get the nslookup to find itself(127.0.0.1) which is the computer I'm going
to setup the DNS on. Anyways, first thing I've done is gone into the
named.conf file and have 1 entry
options {
directory "var/named";
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file"named.local
};
then it tells me to go into the /var/named/named.local file
@ IN SOA ns1.steveandjane.net.
hostmaster.steveandjane.net
2000092602 ; Serial
8H ; Refresh
2H ; Retry
1W ; Expire
1D) ; Minimum TTL
NS ns1.steveandjane.net
1 PTR localhost
After that I goto /usr/sbin/ndc restart
it then displays
new pid is 704
the documentation then states to try a nslookup and when I type the command
in I get
can't find server name for address 209.78.161.140(the ns1.steveandjane.net
server). Server failed
and it then pops back two my secondary server on the same domain.
Why is it failing? It seems to restart OK. Please help. This is really being
a thorn in my side. Thanks!
