Is there a name server running on your box?

man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/resolv.conf.5.html says "If this file does not 
exist, only the name server on the local machine will be queried
"

Hi !

Thanks for your reply.

I did the following.


1)      I've checked my nsswitch.conf file and it says 'files  dns' as in 
default , so no change there.

2)      I "disabled the resolver" but simply commented out the dns servers in 
resolv.conf, checked the resolver by a simple ping to 
www.google.com<http://www.google.com>, got the response: 'unknown host' as it 
should.

3)      Then I've put our SIP operators ip-name pairs in the hosts file, EXCEPT 
the one that causes us problem , checked with ping , got hits on all of them, 
and the one that where the problem responded with 'unknown host',

so the system looks up the hosts file correctly.

4)      But STILL Opensips uses the faulty one , the IP is not in the hosts 
file, no dns servers is in the resolv.conf.

5)      Restarts the Opensips, now it works as expected.

Can anyone out there give me an explanation that causes this behavior ?


Again, thank you for your attend at this matter.

What do you mean you "disabled the resolver"?

I haven't play with this in a long time, but I think the /etc/nsswitch.conf 
file defines if you use /etc/hosts file or/and DNS for looking up host names, 
and might allow nis+ as well, but I can't remember.

So might want to check if you happen to have your hostname defined in the hosts 
file.  Also seems people note that /etc/resolv.conf might be overwrite at boot 
based on using NetworkManager.  So maybe your settings are being over written.

Hi !

It seems that the Opensip 2.2 caches DNS queries !!!

Even after I disabled the resolver in Centos, the OpenSIPs seems to "remember" 
old queries. (eg. IP's)
after a Opensip restart, the old stuff was gone.

If so, how can I disable the DNS caching in the Opensips, I want the system to 
always make a new , fresh
query.
