nslookup

Hi, I'm having a nslookup problem with my server (win2k)

when i ping microsoft.com, yahoo.com, it always appears like this.

C:\>nslookup
Default Server: mselser.mselswd.msel.com
Address: 192.1.1.173

> yahoo.com
Server: mselser.mselswd.msel.com
Address: 192.1.1.173

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: yahoo.com.msel.com
Address: 67.15.35.126

> www.yahoo.com
Server: mselser.mselswd.msel.com
Address: 192.1.1.173

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.yahoo.com.msel.com
Address: 67.15.35.126

i do not know why it appends the msel.com and giving the same ip address.
Another thing, when i try to ping a local name to resolve the ip, it also
gives this ip address.

You have received a non-authoritative answer because you are querying servers that are not authoritative for the zones. To ensure that you receive authoritative answers, you must point nslookup at one of the listed name servers.

Hi, Thanks,
...but for ms4-04, it was supposed to be the local ip address. but it still gives me the foreign ip when i do a ping. and ms4-04 becomes ms4-04.msel.com instead of ms4-04.mselswd.msel.com. As you can see, it is correct in the nslookup (192.1.1.53)

Put a period at the end of the query because it is suffixing your Search
Suffix. It seems Yahoo is using a wildcard entry, and the way your machine
gets around it is it uses it's search suffix. You can test this with a
machine without a suffix to see what I mean. I even got a reply by entering
bill.yahoo.com.

Example:
nslookup
> yahoo.com.
(notice the period at the end of it?)

That will force it to ONLY lookup yahoo.com without the search suffix.

If you are having difficulty in reading or finding responses to your post,
instead of the website you are using, if I may suggest to use OEx (Outlook

Microsoft Public Newsgroups, and it is FREE and DOES NOT require a Usenet
account with your ISP. With OEx, you can easily find your post, track
threads, cross-post, and sort by date, poster's name, watched threads or

Hi,

Thanks, it is working well if i put a period at the end of the query. Does
that mean that the DNS server configuration is correct?

Hi,
Thanks, i've figured it out.
in the client, i've the put the 'mselswd.msel.com' in 'append these DNS
suffixes(in order)', and not the 'append primary and connection
suffixes....'.

Thanks again.
Regards,
Tan

That was my next suggestion and I'm glad you figured it out!
