Do you mean to say that the search / domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf do /not/ work for dig / host? (Or am I mis-reading your email?) Do you know if there is a way to get nslookup* / dig / host to work with the search domain? It was my (mis)understanding that search / domain works for things that use the system resolver libraries, which (I believe) nslookup* / dig / host bypass and make (unqualified) DNS queries directly.

RE: need to look up short names
Appending suffixes to short names to make them legal DNS names, is considered the responsibility of the *client*, not the *server*. Look up “resolver search list” (more Unix-ish/Linux-ish) or “suffix search list” (more Windows-ish), and you should find some useful information. - Kevin From: bind-users [mailto:bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of toddandmargo Sent: Thursday, August 10, 2017 8:21 PM To: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: need to look up short names Hi All, Fedora 26 bind-chroot-9.11.1-2.P2.fc26.x86_64 I am stumped.
