Re: How do I disable DNS Caching and DNS Reverse Lookup in Nginx ?

Hello thank you for your reply!

1) I have shown you the real configuration and logs. All I changed was the FQDN's because I dont know if I am allowed by my company to post them online.

2) Which tests do you recommend I run using telnet and curl? I am not too familiar with using curl so any guidance will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
