Does anyone know how to stop DNS caching under SME v6.x ?
Get me errors sometimes and my stations can't access my external POP3 servers. Keeps saying that Domain do not exist.
Any help would be apprciated.
regards,
Luis

How do you have the server setup? It almost sounds as if it is acting as a stand alone dns server for your network insteading of a caching one. I had some issues with DNS when I first installed SME.. Take a look at this thread and let me know if it helps. http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=23044.0

i have the same problem..
not sure if this is the correct way to resolve it but it works for now...
create a text file in: /var/service/dnscache/root/servers/
called : changethis.com (your domain name)
containing : ip.address.of.domain (ie 127.0.0.1) for localhost
then restart dns cache : service dnscache restart
I then created a script so that cron would do this at a regular intervals(hourly/daily/etc)
