Thanks for YOUR endurance! :D

On my Win-7 machine, I edited the service-dns.conf file as per the new readme file. No change - resolving .bit names works, .com doesn't work. nslookup result is slightly different. It says,

C:>nslookup google.com
Server: UnKnown
Address: 127.0.0.1

*** UnKnown can't find google.com: Server failed


No time available to do more troubleshooting on this until next week. Thanks.

Did you restart NMControl? In the debug log it should say what the problem is.

Attached is the debug log. The transactions/events are in the following order: Start "nmcontrolwin --debug=1", "nslookup nx.bit", "nxlookup google.com", quit nmcontrolwin.

Thanks for the log. Reading it I could quickly see the problem. You discovered another bug! :roll:

There needs to be a comma at the end of the resolver config value (the parser expects a list here). I had not known this myself (code from the old days).

Code: Select all

; Disable lookups for standard domains
disable_standard_lookups=0

; Forward standard requests to your standard DNS
; There has to be a comma at the end!
; e.g. lokal router ip: resolver=192.168.0.1,
; e.g. Google DNS: resolver=8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4,
resolver=192.168.0.1,
I have update the readme in my repo: https://github.com/phelixnmc/nmcontrol/ ... /README.md (should go live soon)
