Hello Falko, I have just installed the DNS server as described in step 9. Unfortunately the command "host-a debian" gives me this (see below): debian:~# host -a debian Trying "debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci" Trying "debian" Host debian not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) Received 99 bytes from 192.168.2.1#53 in 0 ms debian:~# host -a debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci Trying "debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci" Host debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci not found: 2(SERVFAIL) Received 46 bytes from 192.168.2.1#53 in 0 ms debian:~# How do I settle the problem or what command replaces "host-a debian" for permit me to know that my DNS works.

Hello Falko, I've installed Bind as it's described in the howto. I agree with you that it can be a chroot problem. How can I help you to help me solve this problem ? Thanks for your feedback.

Bind seems to be running ok. Did you create a record for debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci? Can you try Code: dig @localhost debian.dpi-arobasetelecom.ci ?
