That is essentially what I have done, though I had to set the connection to not provide dns service with the dhcp address, and set the dns to be the router address. That still doesn't provide caching, the original purpose of setting up named as a caching nameserver, so I will use dnsmasq or knot-resolver. Done with named. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
