With the name being "oldchris" it might not register its name with the DNS server, once it gets it IP via DHCP. And so the server does the nslookup ?
Just a thought.

The command
root@mws:~# host oldchris
does a hosts lookup, I assume in the local tables, and gets
oldchris.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.140
... and then does a DNS lookup and ....
Host oldchris.zbmc.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
... as is on my machine...
OK, but why does it try the second lookup? If I do other 'host' commands I don't get the same result:-
chris$ host chris.zbmc.eu chris.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.4 chris$ host dps.zbmc.eu dps.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.2 chris$ host oldchris.zbmc.eu oldchris.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.140 Host oldchris.zbmc.eu not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) chris$ host backup.zbmc.eu backup.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.88 chris$ host laptop.zbmc.eu laptop.zbmc.eu has address 192.168.1.84
Note that 192.168.1.4 and 192.168.1.2 are 'static' in that they're in the /etc/hosts file on the machine that is the DNS server, the others get their address using DHCP.
I'll ask on the dnsmasq list too, the DNS server uses dnsmasq.

Apologies for the repetition of this email, but I've had only two responses to this so far, and only one of those is able to attend, which at the moment is making a gathering of three.
There were quite a few ppl at the last meet who sounded like they were up for this again, so can I ask if anyone just hasn't responded yet, can you do so soon?
If I get some more interest, I'll book somewhere, otherwise we'll make it a normal meet and maybe try an ad-hoc meal out somewhere, depending on the feeling on the night.
Thanks,
Peter.

Hey, all.
It's that festive time of year again. ?We talked about this at the last Ipswich meet and there was a groundswell of approval for another Christmas meal again this year.
I'll nominally start by proposing 20:00 on the the same date as the usual Ipswich ALUG meet (20th Dec), but please drop me a line if you'd like to attend but think that would be an awkward date for you as I'm sure we can re-arrange it, when I have a list of who's coming.
Everyone is welcome - no need to be a LUG regular.
Please mail me off-list, if you'd like to join in. ?When I have a list of ppl who'll be there, we can settle on where we want to go and finalise the date.
Cheers,
Peter.

No worries, Tony.
I wasn't intending to guilt anyway, just catch up any stragglers. Our numbers tend to fluctuate so sometimes we have large meets, other times very small.
If December is just on the small side, we'll play it by ear. I've had at least one more possible respondee tho, so the numbers are creeping up. :)
