Hi, besides nsd it is possible to make dynamic update work with bind on centos 5.5.

Using Kerberos? > From clients too or just with the samba_dnsupdate script? Nope, AFAIK nsd can't do ms style dynamic updates (its the one bundled with Centos 5.5). We decided to go for static dns (we have only one s4 DC), which is composed of the bind config file generated by s4 provision (nsd can use bind config files, but TXT records have to be quoted for some reason) and all other records generated from database. > > How was it to set up compared to bind? Besides not setting up dynamic updates, quite easy (I think easier than bind). As mentioned earlier, it supports bind config syntax (but TXT records have to be quoted). > Regards Luk -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
