--- Begin Message ---Package: dhcp3-server Version: 3.1.1-1 Severity: normal File: dhcpd Hi, I have a /24 split at two sites with reverse DNS appropriate partitioned so that half (e.g. 192.168.7.0/25 and 192.168.7.128/25 -- used for illustration btw not the actual IP addresses) is in zone: 0-25.7.168.192.in-addr.arpa. and the other is in: 128-25.7.168.192.in-addr.arpa. There appear no way to have the DHCP daemon update the correct reverse zone. It will always try to update 7.168.192.in-addr.arpa. Unfortunately setting ddns-rev-domainname does not help as that only put a suffix on the reversed IP address. Nor does attempting to turn the option into an evaluation expression like: ddns-rev-domainname concat(binary-to-ascii(10, 8, ".", suffix(leased-address, 1)), "0-25.7.168.192.in-addr.arpa."); Since DHCP expects either a parameter or declaration.
