We have a ISDN connection to a internet provider and uses our own name server with our providers nameserver put in our named.boot as
"forwarders".
This work quite well, but due to the time it takes to dial - you will often recieve at "This host does not have a DNS entry" error. When you
uses nslookup interactively, you have an option to set the timeout value (default 4) to something higher.
Where can I set the default timeout for namelookup ?
Secondly my reverse lookup does not work on anything outside my own net.
When i use nslookup aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd server <my.internet.provider> I don't have any problems.
The most annoying part of this is, that you will only see ip'addresses and no name translations when you use traceroute etc...
I suspect a local configuration error, but have been unable to locate it.
Any good suggestions ?
