I'd rather not use named. tinydns seems simpler to set up (despite my problems) and is theoretically far more secure.

Well, tinydns must be bound to a different address than dnscache. If I do a dig @tinydns ip address server1.linux.com it responds with the correct address. However, if I put the dnscache IP address in my /etc/resolv.conf, resolution to *any* IP address (including server1.linux.com and server2.linux.com) fails. Thoughts? -j

[gentoo-user] help with tinydns setup
All, I'm trying to set up a DNS server here for a lab environment. - hijacking a TLD (linux.com let's say, as an example) - trying to point several Linux boxen in a sandbox with no internet connectivity So, here's a copy of my tinydns data file: .linux.com:172.18.109.125:a:259200 =server1.linux.com:14.17.108.241:86400 =server2.linux.com:14.17.108.242:86400 I've been following instructions on the following two pages in order to get some guidance on where I'm going with this: http://www.fredshack.com/docs/djbdns.html http://wiki.vpslink.com/HOWTO:_Setup_a_DNS_server_with_tinydns Inside of /etc/dnscache/root/servers/linux.com I have 127.0.0.1 so that the server knows to query the tinydns daemon running. Unfortunately, however, a dig @ipAddr server1.linux.com doesn't seem to work. Thoughts? Ideas? Thanks! -j
