Hi list!<br><br>Sorry to post this kinda lame question but I am
struggling with this and I cannot see the solution. One of the machines
in my network, resolves all hostnames and FQDNs as it should, by dig,
nslookup and ping. But the other, does resolve everything when I query
the server (with dig and nslookup) but when I try to ping the FQDN, it
cannot resolve it, but it does with only hostname. Please see details
below.<br>
<br>I configured dnsmasq to only provide DNS service.<br><br>The only
options I have in dnsmasq.conf are the ones that set the interface to
listen on, and the one that prevents DHCP to listen on that same
interface (I am running isc-dhcp from debian packages tree, the same
with dnsmasq)<br>
<br>I have 2 machines besides the server:<br>floyd and tws85<br>here are the relevant parts of every file:<br><br>oblivion: (DNS Server) 192.168.101.2<br>/etc/hosts<br>192.168.101.151 floyd.elcub0.local floyd<br>192.168.101.7 tws85.elcub0.local tws85<br>

search elcub0.local<br><br>and these are the tests:<br>from floyd:<br>root@floyd:/etc/bacula# nslookup oblivion.elcub0.local<br>Server: 192.168.101.2<br>Address: 192.168.101.2#53<br><br>Name: oblivion.elcub0.local<br>

<br>as you can see, one machine is resolving the domains, but the other does not... same configuration on both :S<br><br>What am I missing here ?<br><br>Thanks a lot in advance!<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>-Jorixine-<br>
