Hello, I have a bug with "nslookup". I changed my DNS (bind) server (edited "resolv.conf"). "ping" and "nsquery" still work fine but "nslookup" does not work anymore. I Get the following message where 192.26.211.164 is the new BIND server (192.26.211.119 is the old) : # nslookup *** Can't find server name for address 192.26.211.164: Query refused *** Default servers are not available # Using the SUN utility "snoop" on the new server shows that the ULTRIX client does not send anything to the server. All other clients (HP, SUN, Motorola/AIX) work fine, only ULTRIX ones cause problems. The funny thing is that if i use "nslookup" specifying the old server interactively and then use the "server" command to switch to the new one, it works fine : -> # nslookup - 192.26.211.119 -> Default Server: inrs-telecom.uquebec.ca -> Address: 192.26.211.119 -> -> > server 192.26.211.164 -> Default Server: [192.26.211.164] -> Address: 192.26.211.164 -> -> > www.sun.com -> Server: [192.26.211.164] -> Address: 192.26.211.164 -> -> Name: www.sun.com.UQuebec.CA -> -> I did add an entry for all BIND servers in /etc/hosts to be on the safe side without any effect. Any help would be apreciated.
