Hi everyone
I have spent an embarassing amount of time trying to solve this problem but
Ijust cannot see where I'm going wrong.
Any help from you guys would be much appreciated again.
When I try to resolve host names with the named server I get the message "***
ev.barnswell.net can't find ev.barnswell.net:Server failed."
The messages log says
"barnswell.net.zone: Line 11:Unknown type:ev."
"barnswell.net.zone:11: Database error near (ev)"
"master zone "barnswell.net" rejected due to errors."
In /etc/named.conf file I have the zone
"barnswell.net" {
type master;
file "barnswell.net.zone";
};
The zone /var/named/barnswell.net file reads
@ IN SOA ev.barnswell.net. master.ev.barnswell.net.
( 2000031301 ; Serial
21600 ; Refresh
1800 ; Retry
4w ; Expire
1h ;
IN NS ev.barnswell.net.
ev IN A 192.168.0.2
IN MX 10 ev.barnswell.net.
If this helps I am only using DNS for my LAN thus the root file
/var/named/barnswell.net reads thus
. 3600000 IN NS ev.barnswell.net.
ev.barnswell.net. 3600000 A 192.168.0.2
Also if it helps /etc/resolv.conf reads
search barnswell.net
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.0.2
Thanks
Ev
