Hi, I have setup a DNS server and it is being able to resolve DNS names corrrectly when I use the nslookup query but when I use the -lserver query it does not give me the name of the server. Also, when I go to this test page:
http://www.domainwhitepages.com/, and you type in my domain mancosa.dyndns.org, you can see that there is a problem with the DNS query section.
Moreover, I checked the DNS at this address:
http://www.ip-plus.net/tools/dns_ch...Domain: mancosa.dyndns.org
DNS Server: (IP address of mancosa.dyndns.org)There were 8 errors.
I am not too sure how to go about it. Can you please advise? Many Thanks.
nslookup has no errors for mancosa.dyndns.org Your links don't work btw.
not seeing any errors in domain white pages either.
-lserver is your local dns server. Is your local dns server configured? ISP dns ips in the forwarders tab?
Thanks for reply. The first link was not working because the comma got inserted in the link but i guess you managed to sort that out because you are saying no errors on white pages. I have typed in my domain again in white pages and it still giving me this:

What should be my SOA in this case? my server right? in this case server.mancosa.dyndns.org.

Appears you have two nics in your server with one going to the lan and one to the router.
Appears xxx.136.244.115 is your router wan ip and dyndns.org is at 204.13.248.116
You are not running mail services on your serverNot sure what you have going on but you should be talking to the folks at dyndns.org since its their dns that is pointing to your server.
Yes that is right, 1 NIC pointing to router the other to LAN although I had to remove the LAN. According to VPN you had to have 2 NICs but apparently its working with only 1 at the moment but I did configure the wizards when 2 NICs were on. Maybe that is the problem don't you think? I did setup mail services as well and I could receive emails but could not send though outlook express. And that is the reason that got me thinking that something is wrong with the DNS although VPN is working but it is not resolving names on the LAN though.
dyndns.org IN MX
preference: 10
exchange: mail.dyndns.commx should point to your domain name not dyndns. You have no mail dns entry on the internet.
You really need to talk to the folks at dyndns
