Title: Setting DNS to OS X Server
Post by: Isoparm on June 15, 2012, 10:57:57 AM

I'm running a Mac OS X Server on my network. I'd like to use the Server's DNS instead of my ISP's. In the D-Link Router I've set the DNS to the OSX server in the WAN section. Unfortunately it doesn't allow my clients on the network to connect to the internet when I do this.

If I set the DNS on the client to the OS X server it works fine. Or if I set the DNS on the router to my ISP's (or Google's) it works fine too.

Is this a route configuration issue? (And if so, what can I do to fix it?) Or is this an OS X Server issue?


Thanks in advance

Try putting the OSX Server in the 655's DMZ?

I've done that. Didn't seem to help.

Is DNS relay ON? Might turn it OFF.
Also disable Advanced DNS services if thats ON.
