Hi Sriram,

 

Thanks for the quick reply. Are these pending changes likely to be
introduced soon? If so, what is the plan for updating the Jaunty
likewise-open5 package with them?

 

Oliver

Hi Oliver,

 

You are correct in expecting the dynamic DNS updates to happen at domain
join time, and consequently be automatic.

 

Due to some pending architectural changes, we have been running the
lw-update-dns tool using cron and various scripts for now.

 

Thanks,

Sriram

Subject: [Likewise-open-discuss] Dynamic DNS updates automation

 

Hello list:

 

First, thank you Likewise for building v5. It's exactly what I've been
waiting for for years!

 

Using Ubuntu 9.0.4 (Jaunty) I've successfully installed Open v5 and
joined a domain. When this join operation completed and the server was
rebooted, I expected that the client would automatically update our
dynamic DNS servers (MS-DNS), but this didn't happen, or at least not
within a couple of hours where I left the server alone.

 

When I manually run the lw-update-dns tool, the update is sent and the
client becomes registered (though the client used a server in a
different AD site).

 

Shouldn't the lw-update-dns tool run automatically when joining the
domain, and then on a regular basis to keep the records fresh?

 

For reference, my Ubuntu server has been assigned a static IP address
and is not using DHCP or BOOTP.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Oliver
