Hi,
I'm using Fedora 18 (64bit) on a laptop, and have a few issues with my pdnsd-configuration. The daemon itself works as it should, but when I start my laptop, pdnsd assumes the dns-servers it uses are offline. The reason for this , I think , is that I use disk encryption and networkmanager takes a few seconds to establish a connection. By that time , the pdnsd timeout has expired, so it assumes I have no link to dns servers.
If I issue
The problem resolves itself. I've allready increased the server timeout values, but to no avail. My next idea was to create a local script that issues the above command after login (or after networkmanager connects). Is there a way via systemd to tell pdnsd to wait for a connection ?
Suggestions welcome,
Thanks in advance,
This is the relevant section of my pdnsd.conf, it might well be that I made an error here:
