[asterisk-users] Why asterisk down when inet server down?

[Zeeshan Zakaria]

Did you check /etc/resolv? Does it point to any DNS by domain name?

If the internet server is down, there can't be a valid DNS server
accessible to Asterisk. The asterisk server is a caching name server,
but obviously won't be able to resolve addresses not in its cache.

Asterisk clearly doesn't need to resolve addresses to connect calls
internally or over the T1. Is there any way to turn off its requirement
for a DNS server? Or at least not fail catastrophically?
