View Full Version : A little more Ensim refreshing needed

I tried adding a secondary nameserver to a fresh Ensim install I did, but it keeps telling me there's no A record while I have added it. Could this be because the nameserver still has to propagate? I thought Ensim used to set the nameserver up without the nameservers actually having propagated before, but I could be wrong :D

Did you set the IP of your local DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf ?
You could use the IP of the server or 127.0.0.1. So it will look at the local dns server first. Since its already propagated on your server, it should work with no errors.

Heres my /etc/resolv.conf

search vansign.net
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 66.111.32.2
nameserver 66.111.32.3
