Hello All,
I just changed my primary DNS from one system to another (all systems in
question are running DU 4.0b). The modifications went without any apparent
hitches. The original primary is now my secondary and a new system has been
installed as my primary. Everything appears to function properly on both of
these systems. I have no problem resolving host names on any system on my
network. If I do an nslookup on either dns, I can resolve any host name,
change default servers , list all hosts, etc.
The problem is on one of my clients (also DU4.0b). I changed
/etc/resolv.conf to reflect the new dns:
domain mydomain.com (not the real domain :))
nameserver 10.99.1.30 (this is the address of the new primary dns)
nameserver 10.99.1.11 (this is the address or the original primary, now
the secondary)
The client appears to resolve names properly, if I ping or telnet to a host
I connect without a problem. However, if a do an nslookup at the client, I
get an error message saying :
"Can't find server name for address 10.99.1.30: non-existent hosts/domain"
and it proceeds to use the secondary dns server.
I have tried putting the hostname and address for the new primary in
/etc/hosts (even though the original primary was never there)
I have rebooted a couple times.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
