I am having a problem with DNS lookups from my FreeBSD server only. The DNS
works properly with all the clients on the network and does zone transfers
properly. However if I try and do an nslookup from the FreeBSD machine
itself I get an error message that says "Can't find server name for address
208.140.75.1: Non-existent host/domain" and "Default servers are not
available".
I have been through the manual and tried everything I know without success.
Below are my named.boot and db.127.0.0 file. I also tried generated a
localhost file using make-localhost and that did not work either.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
