[Pdns-users] need help setting up pdns

[Liong Kok Foo]

Dear Hubert,

Thanks for the reply.

I don't think this is nslookup's problem. The message i am getting :

/Jan 20 17:31:55 domainvn pdns[21108]: Not authoritative for
//'test.com.HOME.COM', sending servfail to 111.222.333.444 (recursion was//  desired)/

That is from the pdns server's log.

To prove that point, you could query your own pdns using windows desktop from your side with nslookup command. See if you get the same error/warning in your pdns server messages log.

Any other ideas? Could it be something to do with SOA and hostmaster? I still not quite sure what they are or maybe I set them up wrongly.

Thanks

Just a gues:

what if nslookup at first try to resolve test.com.HOME.COM because HOME.COM is
your default domain on your XP client, and after that, because it fails ask
for test.com and get the right answer (this will not be loged)? This is the
wrong order, but it is Windows XP. Everything is possible... ;-)

best regards,

hubert
