a correct zone file, I can ask bind for this domain, by
host/dig/nslookup commands. Answers are OK, I have trace of query in
logs. But when I try to use ping/ssh and every other I got "ping: cannot
resolve [domainname]: Unknown host.
In resolv.conf I have myself 127.0.0.1.
How can I solve this issue?
I always use the local IP address of the nameserver, even on the box
itself.
Interesting. This is a bug that existed for many years (it's even
mentioned in the "DNS & BIND" book), but I thought it had been fixed in
most flavors of Unix years ago. I'm very surprised that OS X still has
it.
If your machine gets its IP dynamically, you can put:
nameserver 0.0.0.0
in /etc/resolv.conf, and this will automatically use the local IP
address. Or just leave out the "nameserver" line entirely, as this is
the default.
