Cannot initiate client/server communications #10

Closed kazimer closed 4 years ago

kazimer commented 4 years ago

Hello

I have been trying for a few days to get this project working and I cannot get the client to perform a lookup and find the server. I constantly receive: [socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known]

I am going to assume this error is on me and would like a bit of guidance. I am using 2 digital ocean droplets both running Ubuntu 18.04.3. Namecheap is my registrar and I use intoDNS.com to receive my SOA information. I have tried variations of your example but cannot get the client to resolve.

Could you expand more on your setup that made this work? Am I going about this incorrectly?

Wanted to update this and close it. I realized after typing this out, I cannot use the built in DNS of my VPS provider. Had to switch to using Bind and built all the records within Bind and pointed it as a nameserver to my registrar.
