The "user" DNS setting need to configure the "forwarders" to allow DNS server to do futher searching to find the IP address and host name. If the forwarder is point to ISP's DNS, then maybe ISP DNS should add something like "allow-transfer <host name/IP>" to allow those server to query the DNS info.On Mon, 12 Apr 2004 12:45:17 +0800 Imran William Smith <iwsmith@mimos.my> wrote:I agree, took ages to even resolve DNS queries for local sites like maybank2u. I also find that when using Jaring dialup, some common sites DNS are not stored, e.g. www.theinquirer.net . I am using DNS server 192.228.128.10 and 192.228.128.20 - know any better ones? If I wanted to set up a high volume DNS and make it available to others (in my personal capacity, I have spare bandwidth and CPU in a US-based server), how do I get permission to query the root servers directly? Or can I only query the hosting provider's DNS from my server?what for u query from other's DNS server while you run your own DNS server? With this, entire DNS servers will combine to become a "Large DNS Farm". Regards Sze Kai |
