Supposingly there is a host/server in the network with FQDN as "host1.example.com"
Can i know what will happen when i on another workstation, do a "ping host1" assuming that host1 is not recorded in my "/etc/hosts" file.
q1) Will my workstation still try to resolve "host1" by sending a dns query to the DNS server (e.g. 192.168.1.1) ?
q2) In the DNS server, will this query be accepted ? or fall into/being look up in any default zone (e.g example.com) ?
Is there anyway that i can configure my DNS server to have a default zone that is being lookup for unqualified name (e.g. host1)
