 Posted: Tue Nov 18, 2008 6:41 pm Post subject: Problems with a DNS server an the CTR500 |
 |
|
I just received a CTR500 to use with a Sprint Compass 597 data card. The Compass 597 is working fine with my vista workstation. The router is connected to my LAN and will provide access to several workstation.
One problem I'm having is using the DNS server in one of the workstation. On every query I'm receiving a message:
18-Nov-2008 19:17:20.629 lame server resolving 'dns03.exodus.net' (in 'net'?): 192.31.80.30#53
In the router I can see this message in the LOGS:
[INFO] Tue Nov 18 16:31:02 2008 Blocked outgoing ICMP packet (ICMP type 3) from 192.168.1.101 to 195.59.44.134
I have tried to prevent the ICMP messages on the router, but have failed to find a solution. The DNS server work fine with another router configured to the land line ISP.
Is this messages do to a setting on the DNS server or in the router? How can I prevent the Router to block any DNS connection from the DNS server?
The DNS server is a Linux server running bind 9.3.4.

I am guessing the DNS server is yours? If so what happens if you do a dig with it's external IP to www.evdoforums.com? Then try a dig with a regular internet server and check the results.
In Vista what is returned on a nslookup? Nslookup should use the first DNS server from DHCP, which could be the router not your internet DNS server though.
Tell us more about your setup and this linux DNS server.

yeas, this is my DNS server. Querying the router or external DNS works fine.

I'm not using dhcp, The workstation are configured to use the local DNS.
Here is the output from dig in linux and nslookup in vista: |

The is mi DNS server. Queries of zone that it is not the master, it will report and describe above. Queries of external server or the router works as expected.
Every workstation here is using the internal DNS. Here is the output of nslookup:
| Code: | [root@c2 ~]# dig www.evdoforums.com

DNS in my experience never worked the way I wanted it to when I'm using Sprint. Works ok on verizon and alltel.
Something about sprint only wanting their DNS to be used... |

In the Bind config I would comment out the defaults and insert 2 from Sprint. Then check to see if you have the same problem.
I also just noticed you said "one" of the machines. So others are OK?

Does your nameserver config specify a file to load the root cache from, and does that file exist? Do you happen to have your nameserver configured to be master for the root zone, somehow? Do you know how to check for that? 
The problem is definitely with your nameserver config. I could probably diagnose it, but I think BIND config issues are probably off-topic. |
