RE: Dig problems


Turns out just adding an /etc/resolv.conf file fixes it. I still don't know
why this is needed on some systems and not others.

Yes, I also have this problem.  I thought it was just me...  I also get that
error every time I try to use host or dig.  I am able to resolve hostnames
generally, and Windows' nslookup works.

Thanks for reporting that.
Andrew.
