Running dnsmasq as an authoritative DNS server
- by Lord Loh.
I am trying to implement a dynamic dns service for my computers. I have pointed h.lohray.com to my EC2 instance in the NS record of lohray.com and have installed dnsmasq on that system and have made sure to unblock the firewall port.
For now, I have statistically added an entry on my /etc/hosts file.
129.118.19.163 i7.h.lohray.com
however, i7.h.lohray.com does not resolve correctly with nslookup or dig :-( This is the only time I could have this resolved (online nslookup) - 50.19.103.190 is the IP address of the EC2 instance where dnsmasq is running. Where could I have gone wrong?
