I don't suppose anybody could give me an example. I've tried what the
cricket book published by O'Rielly says, but it didn't work for me. I'm
using bind 9.1 on RedHat 7.1.
I want the domain "u3net.com" resolved to my IP addresses, and the reverse.
I would like the hostnames www and ftp setup, perhaps as aliases to ns0
(primary nameserver). I would like ns1 to be a Windows 2000 box - anybody
know how-to on Win2K?
I have two boxes, which I will call Linux and W2K:
So in summary:
u3net.com and reverse, to 2 IP addresses [Linux box]
hostname ns0 (on u3net.com) - primary nameserver [Linux box]
hostname ns1 (on u3net.com) - slave nameserver [W2K box]
hostname www (on u3net.com) [Linux box]
hostname ftp (on u3net.com) [Linux box]
Do I need the nameservers of the networks these boxes are on?
So I guess I would have this in my /etc/named.conf:
zone "u3net.com" in {
type master;
file "u3net.com";
};
zone "100.248.204.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "204.248.100";
};
// Why not 26.100.248.204.in-addr-arpa???
... and the files named above in /var/named/ which is where it is configured
to have its files.
Why have a $TTL as 2 or 3 and not something else? What are best-performance
values for the figures in the SOA? I think that's statement-of-authority
IIRC.
How do I test the configuration with dig after it's all done? What about
email accounts on the domain name, like [EMAIL PROTECTED] for
example?
And, is there a template somewhere I can just copy and alter to add a new
domain zone? With the hostnames www and ftp too?
Thanks,
James
