DNS address

every thing i have read as to the DNS address on DD says 10.0.0.1
I cant get this to work on the mann mchn K2DIG, however this DNS works fine on the Martinsville Mchn NJ2DG. a local guy said the correct DNS address on all systems should be 10.0.0.2 I've had no luck with that at all. Please note ip addresses (not names) seem to work fine on K2DIG. Can any one clear this up. JIM (KA2OON) |
If configured correctly, yes 10.0.0.1 (Gateway Router) should be used as
the default DNS.? In reality you could use most any DNS servers, but
you want something that is close and will respond quickly. Using 10.0.0.2
(Gateway PC) can also work since it defaults everything except D-Star
entries to the Gateway Router anyway.

开云体育Simple, what is 10.0.0.1? Your router? If so, then the router will need the capability to forward DNS queries or host DNS server. If it doesn’t then it won’t work. Most commercial routers don’t do this. Some home routers do. ? What’s 10.0.0.2? Your gateway? By default it should be a DNS server and capable of serving DNS for D-STAR devices. In general, since the gateway also hosts the dstar.local domain, this can be considered a better DNS than a generic DNS server. ? The dstar.local domain hosts all of the records for DSTAR users. If you wanted to connect to the computer connected to my ID-1, you would use wa4yih.dstar.local. That’s only available internal to the DSTAR environment. ? ? So, in general, I would never recommend 10.0.0.1 as the DNS server. The more reliable answer would be either the gateway server at 10.0.0.2 or any generic Internet DNS. ? Ed WA4YIH ?

Did you speak to Scott, KB2EAR?

He's the sysadmin for NJ2DG. He's the best one to talk to about their setup. On 10/26/2009 06:36 PM, james wrote:
