1966.0. "nslookup from external web" by VAXRIO::MEYER (Carlos Meyer - MCS/CSC - Rio de Janeiro/Brazil) Tue May 20 1997 16:34

Hi,

I ask for some help in the configuration bellow. Everything is working
fine but nslookup from the external WEB Server(Iktus). 

            +----------+           +---------+
            | EXT WEB  |           |  ROUTER |

    ekeiros         kronus          kerigma
  (POP SERVER)
 (MAIL GATEWAY)
 (DHCP  SERVER)

Firewall.....: Adelphos (dns hidden)
Primary DNS..: Kerigma

There is an entry in the zone file of Adelphos (firewall) for iktus and 
its CNAME www.

Iktus is configured as a DNS client of Adelphos(firewall) and nslookup is 
not working.
    
# nslookup         (from Iktus)
Can't find server name for address x.x.x.x : no information
Default servers are not available.       (x.x.x.x => firewall address)

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,

Can iktus ping adelphos? Does adelphos have its own name/address in its DNS? 
What does iktus' /etc/resolv.conf say?

Hi,

>> Can iktus ping adelphos? 
Yes. I have adelphos in /etc/hosts of iktus.

>> Does adelphos have its own name/address in its DNS?
Yes, adelphos has its name and address inside its own DNS.

>> What does iktus' /etc/resolv.conf say?
It contains the domain and points to the address of adelphos.

domain company.com.br
server x.x.x.x   (address of adelphos/firewall)

Any clues ?

Thanks,
-meyer.
