samba - Dec 2024 - Problem with multiple dns forwarders -timeout is too big - how to change?

Hello,

I use samba as DC and use multiple dns forwarders eg:

dns forwarder = 192.168.120.1 192.168.120.2

If the server 192.168.120..1 is down, then getting answer for name query 
from samba takes more than 10 seconds.

It waits at least 10 seconds and after not getting an answer from the 
first DNS it then asks the second one.

It is way too long. It makes browsing the internet on the clients a real 
pain.

Is there a possibility to lower the timeout to eg. 1 second?

Best regards,

Olaf Fr?czyk

I have same question too.

How change timeout?
