Hi I want to set up my private lan at home an DNS. I try it but it seem not working like it suppose to. I follow the book "DNS and BIND" from O'relly. After do all of edit named.conf, named.root, hosts, resolv.conf and all of database file. I run named. I get couple of errors messages. this is my question 1)Do I need to set 127.0.0.1 in resolv.conf as a nameserver? 2)when i do nslookup, i get a report something like this "cannot find the host 192.168.1.5 which is my freebsd who i set nameserver in resolv.conf. What should i do to get this work 3)if i put 127.0.0.1 in resolv.conf, it work. According to "DNS and BINDs" book, i don't need to use the localhost (loopback) as a nameserver in resolv.conf. any host that set Nameserver would works. How can it won't work on mine Please help Olivier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
