Re: [PLUG] Can't seem to change my resolv.conf ...


Post the contents of your hosts, hostname, resolv.conf, files please. I'm assuming you can ping that dns server.

No. Sorry, I forgot to say that this is a static IP.

Can't resolve internal names. I have a local DNS server running on a
different host.

root@workhorse:/# nslookup laptop-600m
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address: 127.0.0.1#53

** server can't find laptop-600m: NXDOMAIN


What should happen:

C:\>nslookup laptop-600m
Server: dim-win2300.dacrib.local
Address: 10.0.0.60

Name: laptop-600m.DaCrib.local
Address: 10.0.0.23

(no laughing at the domain name :-))
