Re: [cobalt-users] DNS problem - please help! {Scanned}

["SW" <wppiphoto@xxxxxxxx>]

DNS is running on the box it just takes it a long time to startup when the
box is rebooted (the LCD sits for about 10 - 15 minutes on the 'Starting DNS
Server'). Here is what I get when I do the following:

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/named status
named 8.2.7-REL Sun Aug  3 23:05:18 PDT 2003
admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/home/redhat/BUILD/bind-8.2.7/src/bin/named
config (/etc/named.conf) last loaded at age: Tue Dec 30 14:39:23 2003
number of zones allocated: 64
debug level: 0
xfers running: 0
xfers deferred: 0
soa queries in progress: 0
query logging is OFF
server is up and running
------------
What else can I take a look to see why it's not working? It works for other
domains but not all that are on this box.

Thanks,

SW

   Hmm... according to:
   http://www.checkdns.net/
   http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=mcbc-dc.org

   Your DNS servers can't be reached at all.

   Well, if your named doesn't start, you should check the logs at
   /var/log/messages and see what errors it throws out before it
   dies and post it here so we can help you.
