Or if you are not using a DNS server you at least to need configure your DHCP server to hand out the DNS information from your Internet provider. Without more details on what you are trying to accomplish it is too hard to recommend a solution. Your main goal is that you need to configure DNS and your DHCP server options to hand out the DNS information to the DHCP clients. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
