I am trying to set up an apache server on my RHEL6.4 vm and can't because dnsmasq can't recognize the hostname for some reason:
nslookup rhel64.example.com
Server: xxx.xxx.xx.1
Address: xxx.xxx.xx.1#53
** server can't find rhel64.exmple.com: NXDOMAIN
/etc/hosts
xxx.x.x.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
/etc/resolv.conf
; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script
search novalocal example.com
nameserver xxx.xxx.xx.1
Please let me know if there is anything you need to see to solve my problem. I cannot use a different dns server.
Looking for a way to make dnsmasq resolve the hostname without changing dns servers.
DNS client was never initiated when the virtual machine booted up
