Now my resolve.conf is as follows:
================================
search sgp.fujixerox.com sesswin2003.com
nameserver 13.198.98.35
nameserver 13.198.96.10
================================
The machine "durian" can only be resolved by "13.198.98.10".
This is the result of nslookup:
================================
qxu at durian(pts/1):~[5]$ nslookup durian
Server: 13.198.96.10
Address: 13.198.96.10#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: durian.sgp.fujixerox.com
Address: 13.198.98.190
================================
Why doesn't it go to the first nameserver (13.198.98.35) to try to resolve "durian"? 13.198.98.10 is the second server.
And I can verify the first server is alive and working:
================================
qxu at durian(pts/1):~[6]$ nslookup sesswin2003
Server: 13.198.98.35
Address: 13.198.98.35#53
Name: sesswin2003.sesswin2003.com
Address: 13.198.98.35
================================
So if the first server is alive, when the request to resolve "durian" arrives, the first nameserver (13.198.98.35) should be queried. Is it? But in fact, the first server was skipped, and the query was done with the second server. How to explain this behavior?
Thanks,
Xu Qiang
