Hi
Can anybody tell me how this ought to be done: I'm using real names ?
What should the /etc/hosts entries look like ?
I have a subdomain tigger.iinet.net.au 203.59.102.35
tigger is a cache-only name server for my 192.168.1.0 network.
tigger is listed in
------ /etc/hosts as
192.168.1.254 tigger
192.168.1.20 kanga
192.168.1.50 owl
192.168.1.100 ws001
192.168.1.101 ws002
tigger kanga and owl can dig any.valid.host
and get a valid answer
tigger can ping kanga, owl, ws001 etc (nsswitch: files dns)
kanga and owl cannot resolv other 192.168.1.0 net machine names.
This is a problem for many reasons, including ws001 needs to run a
daemon using service:xxx host:tigger.
I can solve the problem by hard coding wsNNN startup, but I want a
generic solution that works for all local addresses.
If I configure named to use a bogus.domain and add entries to
named.(local, ca) files will this work? tigger is firewalled with a
trusted eth0, so the world won't see it.
named uses my ISP ns.iinet.net.au not the world ns.machines, does the
forward first option apply ?
I'm totally overwhelmed by all of this, any help and suggestions greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
James
