I’m pulling my hair out over this. I’ve got a proxmox homelab, an LXC running technitium installed from TTeck’s script.

The DNS server is also doing DHCP for my network. I have an authoritative zone for ‘.lan’

I can get NS, SOA, TXT records from the DNS server, but no A records! The DNS query logs show that it gives an answer, and if I am on the DNS server itself I get an answer, but no other machines on the network hear the reply.

I think this means the DNS server is working properly. There are no FWs in the way as I can resolve other types.

Where else can I look, or how can I diagnose this? I am completely at a loss.

    Just to be sure you do dig A @server $domain (with the “A”) and can confirm the following

    SERVER is your server

    ;; ANSWER SECTION is empty (or doesn’t exist)

    ;; AUTHORITY SECTION mentions your local DNS server

    Also check

    dig NS @server $domain

    Is your server in the answer section?
