Topic: Setting ISP DNS Server

[benja]

Hi,

Where should i enter twe IP adress of my ISP DNS server ?
During the install process, i can enter one but my ISP give me two (primary and secondary)

Thanks,
benja

Under almost all circumstances, you don't need to enter _any_ DNS server, and unless you're having specific DNS-related problems, it's best not to.

Thanks Dan,

But I've got a specific pb Somme adresses are not resolved and i would like to say the server to forward or redirect the request unresolved to my ISP DNS server.

Don't know if it is possible ?

In that case, entering one of the DNS servers in the console configuration should do what you're looking for--but if your SME isn't resolving the name, and your ISP's DNS server is, then it's almost certain that there's a problem with one of them.

edit

/etc/resolv.conf

and add the line

nameserver

replace with the ip address
