Hi, To make our AD more robust, I'd like to provide more than one dns forwarder, like for example: dns forwarder = 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 However, this seems to break dns resolution completely (and without logging errors in the logs!): # Host test.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) With only one forwarder things work: $ test.com has address 208.64.121.161 Am I really allowed to specify only one forwarder? And if I really cannot enter two ip's, should samba not log an error? Regards, MJ -- Mourik Jan Heupink sys admin unu-merit - www.merit.unu.edu
if you are using bind then then isn't the syntax
forwarders { 8.8.8.8; 8.8.4.4};
the semi-colon is required everywhere.
