Hello there,
Out of nowhere, my name server cannot resolve its own name:
This is a query while I am logged into the same box:
5$ nslookup ns2.wananchi.com
Server: ns2.wananchi.com
Address: 62.8.64.4
*** ns2.wananchi.com can't find ns2.wananchi.com: Non-existent host/domain
I have looked and looked and now I believe a "third eye" is perfectly in
order. I have also used some web-based tools (out of desperation) -
http://demo.dnsdoctor.org/
http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mj/sleuth/
They also still confirm my fears...
I am probably just missing some logging option to reveal this. I have
added
!named
*.* /var/log/named.log
to syslog.conf. However that log file does not reveal much in terms of
why there is NO A record for ns2.wananchi.com, even though I can see one
in the zone file! named-checkzone says we are fine... while we are
not:-(
[root at ns2]#named-checkzone wananchi.com /etc/namedb/views/internal/wananchi.com
zone wananchi.com/IN: loaded serial 2006102602
OK
[root at ns2]#named-checkzone wananchi.com /etc/namedb/views/external/wananchi.com
zone wananchi.com/IN: loaded serial 2006102602
OK
Now I remain simply stumped.
Any advise to identify the problem would be most helpful.
