Thank you
1/ host command can return right ip address
2/ why /etc/host in the hosts relates to the outside
equiry?
I am using outside server to check this domain
The mydomain can return right ip address
But I am curious why the 2nd line is
171203020173.upstream.com instead of mydomain.com ?
It should be. right?
64 bytes from www.mydomain.com (171.203.20.173):
icmp_seq=1 ttl=43 time=291 ms
Thank you
