dns.exe is running on an SBS 2011 machine with IP address 192.168.1.110. Everything's running fine on all clients. Browsing in Internet Explorer on the server works fine as well (using DNS server 192.168.1.110, as defined in the configuration of the LAN
adapter - see bottom of this message for ipconfig / all output)
When using NSLOOKUP with "server 127.0.0.1" on the server, everything works fine as well.But using "server 192.168.1.110" will result in timeout errors. However, q=MX will produce the correct result, even when using server 192.168.1.110!
Here are a few examples (executed in a cmd.exe window on the server), with the output.
The first example works fine on any client, but fails on the server itself.
I'm wondering what could be causing this behavior. Any ideas?
