I have an isolated home network (up to now peer-to-peer) with Mandrake 8.0 server and workstation and have NFS mounts and sambe working well. Now I want to setup DNS (just for the fun of it) and took the DNS Howto as a guide. I am not sure that everything I set up is quite correct since the doc talks on bind8, but here I have bind9, but comparing named files that existed etc. and using linuxconf got me somewhere but not where I want to be, since I get stuck on the test: The howto tells to run "dig -x 127.0.0.1" and here is the answer I get: ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id 18472 flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 QUESTION SECTION: 1.0.0.127. in-addr.arpa., , IN, PTR Query time: 31 msec SERVER: 127.0.0.1#53(127.0.0.1) When: Sat Jan 5 13:58:08 2002 MSG SIZE rcvd: 40 The howto says: if not correct, go back and check everything. That advice is correct without doubt, but as the version of the tools is different it does not get me very far. Somebody has a hint, pointer to some more uptodate doc TIA Herman Viaene
