</font><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="verdana, sans-serif">I installed dnsmasq on my server but the query is still not being<br>
answered from localhost.<br>
In /var/log/syslog I see following<br>
<br>
dnsmasq[1094]: no servers found in /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf, will retry<br>
<br>
<br>
Feb 10 16:17:44 dnsmasq[1094]: reading /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf<br>
Feb 10 16:17:44 dnsmasq[1094]: using nameserver 192.168.1.2#53<br>
<br>
which is querying the DNS on Lan which does not have entries for the<br>
Virtual Machines running on top of my server.<br>
<br>
In my /etc/resolv.conf I have following when<br>
nameserver 127.0.0.1<br>
search <a href="http://somedomain.corporate.org" target="_blank">somedomain.corporate.org</a><br>
<br>
where as I want in /etc/resolv.conf<br>
<br>
nameserver 127.0.0.1<br>
nameserver 192.168.1.2<br>
search <a href="http://somedomain.corporate.org" target="_blank">somedomain.corporate.org</a><br>
<br>
there are some queries which have to be answered only via localhost.It<br>
is a reverse proxy situation.<br>
<br>
The /etc/hosts file reads as follows<br>
<br>
127.0.0.1 localhost<br>
192.168.100.14 someserver<br>
192.168.1.13 domu1.tapas.domain<br>
192.168.1.14 domu2.tapas.domain<br>
192.168.1.15 domu3.tapas.domain<br>
192.168.1.16 domu4.tapas.domain<br>
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts<br>
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback<br>
fe00::0 ip6-localnet<br>
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix<br>
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes<br>
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters<br>
<br>
Where 192.168.100.14 is the machine on which all this has to be done.<br>
So what more should I be doing?<br>
