I set up bind on 192.168.0.1 machine. Also, I have subscribed to a domain service, so I use mydomain.net (sanitized name) for the FQDN in my home network.

When I do an

$ nslookup "name of 192.168.0.1"

from 192.168.0.xxx (connected to 192.168.0.0 home network through wifi with dhcp) I get an NXDOMAIN error.

* server can't find name: NXDOMAIN

However, if I do an

$ nslookup "FQDN of 192.168.0.1"

the result is without error, see below (sanitized):

$ nslookup name.mydomain.net
Server: 127.0.1.1
Address: 127.0.1.1#53

Name: name.mydomain.net
Address: 192.168.0.1

If I do nslookup on the 192.168.0.1 machine for "name of 192.168.0.xxx" I get the NXDOMAIN error even if I use FQDN for 192.168.0.xxx.

Is this normal behavior, is my dns set up properly on 192.168.0.1?

Thanks - Janos
