Hi, I'm running Lenny with Bind 9 on my server; all working fine, except
that whenever I connect a new client, I get the syslog message:
tony-lx named[4179]: client 192.168.1.12#56479: updating zone
'magpieway.net/IN': update unsuccessful: TONY-XP.magpieway.net/CNAME: 'rrset
does not exist' prerequisite not satisfied (YXRRSET)
I've unsuccessfully man'd and googled, as well as read the bind 9
documentation, so I guess I've missed something. Can anyone please tell me
what this means, and how to fix it?
Your DNS server is letting you know that it is creating an entry for
tony-xp because it already exists. This is a result of your dynamic
dns and dhcp settings. I am only familiar with WinDHCP (all the
companies where I have worked have run WinDHCP and it's been a few
years since I last worked on one) but there may be some setting to
scavenge stale entries in *nix. Anyway, it is an informational message
and not a error one, so as long as dig hostname and dig -x hostip
are returning the correct info, you could simply ignore it. (I find
the CNAME reference puzzling but it must be part of your setup.)
