Thread: Easy dns resolution

Hi Nix

In my work env we have a lots of hosts. most all the hosts are in similar hostname with dns hostname for eg cluster11.data.corp.sb1.uni.com, med123.data.corp.sk1.uni.com, also we have some server is colo network which have the host name like cluster11.data.colo.sb1.uni.com

Please help me to make the resolution easy I want to ssh the sever like this

ssh cluster11
ssh custer11.colo
ssh med123

Hey,

You can add this to your resolv.conf:

options ndots:2
search data.corp.sb1.uni.com sb1.uni.com

It's supposed to work

Good luck!

please set up that host names in your local machine /etc/hosts

IP cluster11
IP custer11.colo
IP med123
