Connection to own DNS server

[vicwoods]

I've build a DNS server and a client using virtualbox

Server has ip's 10.0.2.15 (NAT) and 172.20.0.2 (Intern)
Client has ip 172.20.0.101 (intern)

I'm trying to connect my client to my DNS server. I've changed the nameserver to 172.20.0.2 I thought that was it but it doenst seem to work. What Am i forgetting?

Check that it listens on other than localhost? Check that the firewall ports are open?

When I do netstat -tulnp I get the following result

So i recon it isn't listening? How can I add it? And I suppose I should add the 172.20.0.2?

I should have a tcp 0 172.20.0.2 in there right? How can i do that?

That's not just not listening, that looks like not running. I'd check /var/log/messages for errors as well as systemctl status and journalctl output.

DNSmasq is running on the server and journalctl doesn't give me an error (I think)

A dnsmasq --test tells me the syntax is ok. So I assume it's some setting on the workstation I forgot. Anny ideas?

Found the problem, firewall settings on the server..
