What is the entry in /etc/resolv.conf on the machine which is unable to
answer internet domain name queries?
It should have some DNS server which can handle the queries so that if your
server is unable to answer the queries the requests would be forwarded to
that one.

Dear All,
I have a REDHAT box running bind and been working fine for last few
months.
this server was hosting my other other local domains also which were all
workin fine
i installed a new redhat machine with bind to be a secondary or slave
named server a week ago as per the documentation .
so if my primary server goes down all my clients and the inrternet users
can still access my my web sites.
Now when i restart my primary i c the zones gettin transferred to my
secondary DNS which i newly setup and when i do a nslookup goin into the
server for internet sites ex: www.yahoo.com it does not resolve them
but the sites hosted in my netwrok im able to resolve them fine
here the details
my master name server .. ns1.kmun.gov.kw ---- IP
62.150.152.1
slave server which new installed .. ns2.kmun.gov.kw ------- IP
62.150.152.2
if i go to server ns1.kmun.gov.kw or the ip i can resolve both the
internet sites as well as my local domain ...
appreciate ur help
thnks and Regards
simon
