It looks like the error is coming from the PTR record in the forward lookup
zone. You need to have PTR records in a reverse zone that is defined in
/etc/named.conf.
/etc/named.conf:
options {
directory "/var/named/"; // Working directory
pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid"; // Put pid file in
working dir
// allow-query { 127.0.0.1; 192.168/16; };
zone "dns.com" {
type master;
file "primary/dns.zone";
};
zone "child.dns.com" {
type master;
file "primary/child.dns.zone";
};
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "primary/1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
};
Then you need a SOA record for each zone. The PTR record(s) would go in the
1.168.192.in-addr.arpa zone file.
Now, you can cheat with the child zone if there is only going to be one or two
A records in the child zone, but the rest of the info will be the same as the
parent zone. Using the $ORIGIN directive, you can change the 'base' of your
zone from dns.com to child.dns.com:
$TTL 86400
dns.com IN SOA dns.com. root.dns.com. (
1997022700 ; Serial
28800 ; Refresh
14400 ; Retry
3600000 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum
IN NS dns.com.
IN A 192.168.1.101
$ORIGIN dns.com.
www 0 IN A 192.168.1.101
www 0 IN A 192.168.1.102
$ORIGIN child.dns.com.
ns IN A 192.168.1.107
$ORIGIN dns.com.
; other A and CNAME records here for dns.com
Hope this helps,
Dave

Subject: Re: [rhelv5-list] dns zone delegation
did you modify named.conf accordingly?
