Debian :: Configuration - Domain Name- Host Name - Resolv.conf Areas
Feb 6, 2009I installed debian etch, it runs and does connect to the internet fine through a linksys router...the linksys router is connected to my cable modem...now..
I just registered for a domain name (ex. mydomainname.org) with Verio....this is where I am stuck.
I installed apache 2, a web server, file server (all seem to work) I need to know what files I need to configure to have my machine actually BE that domain name.
Ex. my linksys DHCP IP addresses, the linksys gets an IP from the cable modem...my yquestion is ONCE I register a domain name with verio...how do I configure my end so it "knows" I am that respective domain name...I think I need to configure the following, but knot sure how to do it: resolv.conf, hosts, and interface?
Debian Configuration :: Can't Get DNS Client To Use What's In Resolv.conf
Jun 18, 2010My Debian workstation is on a predominantly Windows network. It is resolving internet addresses (i.e. www.google.com, etc) just fine. However it's not resolving any of the address of machines on the local network and the windows machines do not resolve the linux machines address either. All machines (linux and windows) can access each other just fine via direct IP reference.
My /etc/resolv.conf file has the following IP addresses listed:
127.0.0.1
10.1.1.111
10.1.3.4
10.1.1.111 is a netgear VPN/router that is the primary router for the LAN and maintains a VPN to a remote office 10.1.3.4 is the IP address of the Windows Primary Domain control on which the DNS server is running. That server is at the remote office. The system acts like it is completely ignoring anything I put in the resolv.conf file. From the linux X server I'm using "Network Setting" utility to make changes to the network configuration. This appears to work fine for things like switch between DHCP and static IP.
Debian Configuration :: Preferred Resolv.conf Fix For Bind9?
Dec 30, 2010I "fixed" my Lenny home server bind9 configuration because my resolv.conf was always overwritten loosing configuration. The fix involved adding the following to /etc/resolvconf.resolv.conf.d.base.

nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.1.4

Debian Configuration :: Public Network Overwrites /etc/resolv.conf
Dec 10, 2010My ethernet controller is configured as such:
My /etc/resolv.conf file is normally just set up to use Google's public DNS:
When I connect to the network at the university library, it totally overwrites my /etc/resolv.conf file to something like:
This is pretty annoying, so I tried comprimising by making a file with the school's domain and search entries plus the Google nameservers, then revoking write permission on the file. However, I couldn't access any domain name with this config on their network, so I reverted to using their nameservers. I keep all the school's entries commented out when I connect to my home network.
My ultimate question is what is actually overwriting the file? I suspect that my connecting through DHCP is responsible. Whatever it is, I'm pretty annoyed that no back up file was created.
General :: Resolv.conf Search Limited To Six?
May 11, 2009As you may well be aware the resolv.conf search appears to be limited to 6 domains. I need 7 One thing I noticed is that if you run nslookup on a short name that is in the 7th search it does work but ssh does not. I'm guessing that nslookup is actually reading the whole file and isn't limited.
View 7 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: /etc/resolv.conf Search Line Depending On Connected Network ?
Dec 14, 2009I use my laptop both at home and at my job. At home it gives me the correct search line.
But when I am at the office I only get 1 search entry while if you boot in windows it gives you 3
(for example):
So this should be in /etc/resolv.conf search domain domain.com my.domain.com
It seems that this is not passed by the (Windows) dhcp server (Active Directory).
Is there any way that linux can detect depending on the network it is in that there are a few search domains added(for example like resolvconf does with ppp tunnels)?

General :: Add Additional Search Domains To The Resolv.conf Created By Dhclient In CentOS?
Feb 19, 2010When my CentOS virtual machine boots it uses DHCP to get an IP address. It also overwrites resolv.conf with the DNS settings provided by the DHCP server. The DHCP server doesn't supply any search domains so I would like to get dhclient to put in a list of search domains when it writes it. How can I configure dhclient to do this?

View 8 Replies View RelatedFedora Networking :: Resolv.conf Not Replaced
Nov 1, 2010I use Fedora 13 (minimal installation), ISC DHCP server 4.1.1-P1. I'm running Fedora 13 too on a separate machine (minimal installation) with ISC DHCPclient 4.1.1-P1. My goal is to do some IPv6 testing. When I use the DHCP client manually (dhclient -6 -timeout 5 -d -v eth0), the client retrieves and installs a dynamically assigned IPv6 address.
Additionally, the client gets 1 DNS resolver address and 1 DNS search list. The resolver address and DNS search list always get written into /etc/resolv.conf. Perfect, exactly what I need. But when I do a "service network restart" or restart my system (which should trigger the same, as far as I understood), the DNS resolver addr and the search list get written into /etc/resolv.conf.save and the /etc/resolv.conf stays as before. How can I change this behavior? I don't need the .save file, I just want to have /etc/resolv.conf replaced by the latest DNS information.
General :: Dhclient Overwriting Resolv.conf?
May 30, 2011I'm setting up virtual dev environments and I want the hostname.domain to be something specific, eg- "barney.local". However my /etc/resolv.conf file keeps getting nuked because i'm using DHCP. I placed this into my dhclient.conf:
supersede domain-name "localhost"
supersede host-name "barney"
but it didn't help. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. How can I still use DHCP but configure that virtual environment to see itself as barney.local?

Server :: Use Resolv.conf To Have A Local DNS Entry?
Jan 10, 2011I am having a situation where I do not have DNS server (the person who has that is not me) for a few websites which are running on a reverse proxy. I recently after having a long trouble shooting hours found that my proxy pass entries look as follows
Code:
ProxyPass /app1 http://192.168.1.3:8080/app1
ProxyPass / http://192.168.1.3
ProxyPassReverse /app1 http://192.168.1.3:8080/app1
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.1.3
If I use the entries as above then some one from internet is able to access the sites.But from within LAN people are unable to access it.
How ever if I use
Code:
ProxyPass /app1 http://site1.myserver.com:8080/app1
ProxyPass / http://site1.myserver.com
ProxyPassReverse /app1 http://site1.myserver.com:8080/app1
ProxyPassReverse / http://site1.myserver.com
then things work on LAN but from internet it is not accessible.What can be a solution in this case will putting things in resolv.conf do?

View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Networking :: KVPNC And VPN / Errors The /etc/resolv.conf?
Feb 4, 2010I am using KVPNC (recommended by the VPN owner) on Ubuntu 9.10 using my Universities direct Ethernet connection.
I have downloaded all the .ovpn scripts to a directory. I have downloaded KVPNC from the repository (apparently for 9.10 you do not download from the KVPNC website).
I then use sudo kvpnc and select a server (since there are many based on the .ovpn files).I click connect and the script works and tells me I have a connection. See below for an example. All appears to work.
But when I actually load any Internet program e.g. Firefox it cannot find a website.This happens for all servers which have different locations around the world.When I disconnect KVPNC I still have no access. I have to remove the Ethernet cable before it works again.
debug: Connect try requested, profile: Stockholm, type: OpenVPN
debug: openvpn: /usr/sbin/openvpn
debug: Support for TUN/TAP found (compiled into kernel or kernel module already loaded).
debug: Default interface: "eth0".
debug: IP address of default interface: "my IP address".

I realise there are errors e.g. the /etc/resolv.conf must be a symlink but have tried doing this and still have exactly the same issues.
Ubuntu Networking :: /etc/resolv.conf Not Updated On Startup?
Mar 9, 2010I'm using 9.10 Ubuntu Karmic 64-bit (but same thing happens on my 32 bit VM on same PC).
My /etc/resolf/conf file is not updated with DNS information on first boot. The DNS information is in the /etc/network/interfaces file.
The trick I have to do every time I reboot the PC is:
Code:
sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0
First off, why? Second how can I resolve this issue?
I have three NICs eth0 and 1 are normal LANs connected to the internet, but I choose eth0 as the primary. eth2 is a local private one. the DNS information from eth0 should be in the resolv.conf file but isn't. The file is empty at bootup, except for some comments instructing me not to edit this. After running the above sudo commands the file is properly updated and internet works.
Here's my /etc/network/interfaces file's contents:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
