DNS problems with Snow Leopard 10.6

I’ve had some bizarre problems with my DNS today. I checked /etc/resolv.conf but everything looked ok. Checked the settings dialog for my network and at first glance, that one seemed ok as well.

But normally there should be a dimmed version of the DHCP assigned values there.

Just select the empty one and press the minus sign. Sneaky little bug there!

Dimmed DNS values

Save your settings and you should be good to go.

  1. Yeah I am having this problem strictly with corporate network web servers and the Access server. No problem getting to public sites. Or getting to corporate sites when I VPN back into the network. I am on 10.6.1… I would of thought they would of fixed this between 10.6 and 10.6.1

  2. from other reading I have found that Apple now uses the mDNS responder to resolve DNS as well. This is just a big giant mistake. I believe the the problem is coming out because of a Windows .local domain being propagated. mDNS doesn’t like this.
