I was getting this message,
| Code: | | Temporary failure in name resolution |
When starting ntp-client or when pinging a server on the net.
I'm pretty sure this is because a few days ago I tried setting my domainname by setting combinations of dns_domain_lo, dns_domain_, dns_domain_eth0 in /etc/conf.d/net the other day. When I removed my changes, it didn't fix the problem, but maybe I missed something else... Partly because it created (or maybe modified) the /etc/resolv.conf file. When I removed this file and restarted the networking it didn't fix it, either. For now, I put in a fixed /etc/resolv.conf, but I'm pretty sure I don't normally need to do this. Is this a good fix?
Here's my current /etc/conf.d/net,
| Code: | config_eth0=( "10.0.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 10.0.0.255" )
routes_eth0=( "default via 10.0.0.1" ) |
and current my temporarily fixed /etc/resolv.conf,
| Code: | | nameserver 10.0.0.1 |
