I set my windows DNS servers to my custom DNS server. This is the log of the DNS server and what happens when I try to connect to a domain:

No web browsers work and it seems windows doesn't receive the resolution? However I know its taking requests because my server does respond to nslookup.

test your dns server with ns lookup, so run nslookup google.com DNSIP HERE

 

WHere are you setting this custom dns? Is this yoru dhcp server? check with ipconfig what the actual dns server windows is using now is

This is what happens when run that nslookup:

And the DHCP server is my regular router, not the DNS server.

Where is that result from ? DOesn't look like cmd.

 

What dns server are you using? Try using a known good public one.

This was the command: "nslookup google.com 10.0.0.2"

 

That up there is the log from the my DNS server which is using 1.1.1.1 to resolve domains. When I run NSlookup it always puts "hsd1.nh.comcast.net" at the end of it and so it always fails. My server is setup to resolve failed DNS requests to its own ip for testing. I have a web server running on it that just says "Bad Website"

how did you make the dns server, that seems to be your error.

Node.JS Dgram....

 

I should note that I have had this work before and I cannot seem to figure out what is different. Some days it just works but most it doesn't....
