1 All,
2
3 I'm trying to set up a DNS server here for a lab environment.
4
5 - hijacking a TLD (linux.com let's say, as an example)
6 - trying to point several Linux boxen in a sandbox with no internet connectivity
7
8 So, here's a copy of my tinydns data file:
9
10 .linux.com:172.18.109.125:a:259200
11 =server1.linux.com:14.17.108.241:86400
12 =server2.linux.com:14.17.108.242:86400
13
14 I've been following instructions on the following two pages in order
15 to get some guidance on where I'm going with this:
16
17 http://www.fredshack.com/docs/djbdns.html
18 http://wiki.vpslink.com/HOWTO:_Setup_a_DNS_server_with_tinydns
19
20 Inside of /etc/dnscache/root/servers/linux.com I have "127.0.0.1" so
21 that the server knows to query the tinydns daemon running.
22 Unfortunately, however, a "dig @<ipAddr> server1.linux.com" doesn't
23 seem to work.
24
25 Thoughts? Ideas?
26
27 Thanks!
