    Configure DNS on E1VSR109

    Check the entries of /etc/resolv.conf file.

    [root@e1vsr109 ~]# cat /etc/resolv.conf

    search pathinfotech.com

    nameserver 192.168.16.12

    nameserver 192.168.16.11

    [root@e1vsr109 ~]#

    We can see that the dns is working at 192.168.16.12 so need to comment it.

    Check for the dns rpms

    yum install -y *bind* caching-nameserver

    [root@e1vsr109 ~]# rpm -qa| grep bind*

    ypbind-1.19-12.el5_6.1
