Thank you 1/ host command can return right ip address 2/ why /etc/host in the hosts relates to the outside equiry? I am using outside server to check this domain The mydomain can return right ip address But I am curious why the 2nd line is 171203020173.upstream.com instead of mydomain.com ? It should be. right? 64 bytes from www.mydomain.com (171.203.20.173): icmp_seq=1 ttl=43 time=291 ms Thank you --- "Mikkel L.
