Odd Issue Happening CentOS 7

So I have two CentOS 7 machines running.

if I am on my server and I do “curl http://192.168.1.8” I get data. If I do “host devgeis.LayeredSolutionsInc.com” I get the correct address
192.168.1.8

if I goto another machine with CentOS 7. I do “curl http://192.168.1.8” I get data. I do “host devgeis.LayeredSolutionsInc.com” I get the correct address
192.168.1.8

BUT then I do “curl http://devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com” I get “nothing”
BUt then doing the -v with “curl -v http://devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com”
* About to connect() to devgeis.LayeredSolutionsinc.com port 80 (#0)
* Trying 198.168.1.8…

So why when using the name is it not giving me the index.html page ?

Should not be a firewall issue – as the actual address worked. Also I tried stopping the firewall – and all the above is the exact same.

What is possibly happening here ?

Thanks

Jerry

  • I guess you have an apache listening on 192.168.1.8:80? What do the apache logs say? Does your apache know that he’s responsible for devgeis.LayeredSolutionsInc.com?

  • Did you notice the address ? It is not the same IP.

    Right – this doesn’t look like a web server issue, if the quoted text has no typos. the real question is why doing “host” on the name returns 192.168.1.8 but doing “curl -v” with the name appears to return 198.168.1.8 (note 198, not 192, for the first of the dotted quad) (according to the text below).

    Also, I’m not sure that a FQDN in the .com domain should ever resolve to a non-routable address (192,168.x.x). It’s at least weird.
