hi, I tried to ping to yahoo, but it failed with error : unknown host yahoo.com. I think I didn't enable DNS. But when I restart "named", it doesn't report any thing. Any idea?
You do not need to run DNS to do what you are trying to do, but you need to list a valid (or more than one) DNS on your /etc/resolv.conf, which should contain:
search dnsdomainname.com nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
Of course, XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX are the IP of the DNS you are going to use. Done!
