Hi /etc/named.conf is used in redhat/fedora to configure the bind(DNS) daemon. The /var/chroot/etc/named.conf is again used by redhat/fedora to operate bind in chroot environment. The actual file depends how the user has configured bind. (And no, /var/chroot is not related to ltsp at all)
The /etc/host.conf (hosts,bind) tells the system to look for the hostname in the hosts file first and then try a bind name reslolution. Yes, an order like (bind,hosts) could be the cause of this problem. Similar setting are also required in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. I was referring to the bind settings. Perhaps there is some misconfiguration. regards, Mahesh M. --- jeff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sun, Jul 31, 2005 at 10:20:36PM -0700, Mahesh M. > wrote: > > Hello, > > > > Reconfigure your DNS settings ( /etc/named.conf or > > /var/chroot/etc/named.conf ) to search the local > > domain first and only then forward the query to > > internet.
