Unable to use local DNS server
As a home user, I want to have a good DNS for my local network. I decided to install PowerDNS on one of my virtual machines. It works perfectly well and does exactly what I need; resolve local names...
Forgot to reload systemd (I'm still pretty new to this)
So, I did a:
root@truck # systemctl daemon-reload
root@truck # systemctl restart connmanand got PowerDNS working.
Thanks for all the help. ;-))
Some extra information I forgot to give: I tried the app "DNS Server for ReadNAS" by ReadyNAS Guru. It didn't work, but I was unable to really uninstall it. Even after a reboot the app still appears in my list of apps. (Though icons were removed). Perhaps this is the problem
Update: I removed the directory /apps/dnsserver and the app is gone from my list of installed apps. pdns is obviously still unable to start due to the fact that connmand is still using port 53
