[Ilugc] DNS Zone File Clarification - BIND

2010-02-18 Thread Yogesh
Good Day,

I'm setting up a DNS server using BIND. I have a small clarification to
make.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIND9ServerHowto#Alias%20Records

The above link says that you cannot point one CNAME record to another. Which
means:

ns  A10.10.5.5
www  CNAME   ns
test   CNAME   www

is illegal, right? The wikipedia article has an example for the contents of
the  zone file, which has a CNAME pointing to another CNAME. I'm a bit
confused.. Please help. Can you also point me to the right RFC to look into
?? I'm looking at RFC 1035 but can't find any reference to this. Or may be I
simply fail to see where it's mentioned.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_file

Thank You,
Yogesh.

It's in RFC 1034 at the end of Section 3.6.2. It is legal and BIND will
support it. Why would you do that, though? It doubles the number of
requests on the nameserver.

This mostly means your mysql server is not running. The exact method will
depend on your distro, but in general,

/etc/init.d/mysqld start

would work.

In your case you can check certain things
1. Are you sure. is it mysql server had already installed in your system. If
so try to start it again.
if it is fedora based distro say
service mysqld start
others
/etc/init.d/mysql[d] start

then you can try the mysqladmin command

2. If you had not installed mysql server then you could install
yum install mysql-server  for fedora distro's

apt-get install mysql-server  for debian or ubuntu


[d] is not required when you use debian you can simply say /etc/init.d/mysql
start

I was just reading thru the docs and got confused. Yes! I realize it's a bad
idea anyway to  point to another CNAME. Thanks a million !!

If the problem is just that you chowned /usr, try booting into the recovery
console and type

chwon root:root /usr/bin/sudo
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
then..

reboot

This worked for me when I face the same issue..

Reliance data card is mounted as a mass storage device in Ubuntu. people
says you can tweek it to get it working. But I dint succeed with that. But
you can install gnome dialler to make your card working with real speed.

 If anyone using the  ARM development board and have the build environment

A bit of explanation: chmod 4xxx will set what is called setuid on execution. 
That means when the programme is run it will be run as owner of the file, even 
though started by anybody else.  sudo should run  as root to do most of 
function and hence set with setids.


A simple chmod xxx will remove any such setid's.

I am curious why people want 777 for /usr?.

I had fixed the same problem for my friend previously. I had searched google
and found out that you have to enable a module (using modprobe), but I have
forgotten the details. If you can specify the model number of your data
card, you will most likely find the answer in google itself.
