- Subject: Linux resolver problem
- To: TCP-Group@UCSD.Edu
-
- Is anyone on this list experienced with using the native
- Linux TCP/IP facilities?
- I've a problem with the resolver.
- The DNS I'm using is on the "radio-active" JNOS machine
- at home, and the Linux machine is connected to it by an
- Ethernet link.
-
- The problem I have is that the resolver always appends
- ".ampr.org" to all its DNS queries, unless the hostname
- ends in a dot.
- E.g. if I ping "g8iuc" it makes a query for "g8iuc.ampr.org",
- if I ping "g8iuc.ampr.org" it makes a query for
- "g8iuc.ampr.org.ampr.org", and if I ping "bhl3s1.bnr.co.uk"
- it makes query for "bhl3s1.bnr.co.uk.ampr.org".
- Only if I specifically add the trailing dot does it work ok.
-
- Has anyone got a similar setup working correctly by any chance?
-
- My setup:
-
- resolv.conf reads
- domain ampr.org
- nameserver 44.131.181.17 <- the JNOS machine
-
- hostname = g8fsl
- domainname=ampr.org
-
-
- Any information would be most welcome.
