Hoping I could get some help setting up the reverse zone. I have read
the HOW-TO, RFC2317, and DNS and Bind (3rd ed.), and I can't quite
figure it out. Here are my various files:
named.conf
options {
directory "/var/named";
forwarders {206.127.0.2; 206.127.0.3; };
};
zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};
zone "obi.com"{
type master;
file "obi.com";
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"{
type master;
file "named.local";
};
zone "17.99.209.in-addr.arpa"{
type master;
file "17.99.209";
};
obi.com
; The full zone file
;
@ IN SOA talus.obi.com. root.obi.com. (
1999092401 ; serial
8H ; refresh
2H ; retry
1W ; expire
1D ; default_ttl
)
;
@ IN TXT "OsteoBiologics, Inc."
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
gw IN A 209.99.17.129
gw IN HINFO "Pipeline 75" "SCM"
gw IN TXT "The router"
talus IN A 209.99.17.189
talus IN MX 20 ns.obi.com.
talus IN HINFO "Pentium" "Linux Mandrake-6.0"
ns IN A 209.99.17.135
ns IN MX 20 ns.obi.com.
ns IN HINFO "PowerMac" "MacOS 8.1"
www IN CNAME ns.obi.com.
ulna IN A 209.99.17.152
ulna IN HINFO "Pentium" "RedHat Linux 5.2"
@ IN MX 10 ns.obi.com.
@ IN NS talus
and finally, 17.99.209
$TTL 1D
@ IN SOA talus.obi.com. root.obi.com. (
1999092401 ; Serial
8H ; Refresh
2H ; Retry
1W ; Expire
1D); Minimum
IN NS talus.obi.com.
129 IN PTR gw.obi.com.
135 IN PTR ns.obi.com.
189 IN PTR talus.obi.com.
While this works, it claims authority for the whole 209.99.17.xxx group,
while I really only have authority over 209.99.17/26. I have tried
setting up the zone file 128.17.99.209 and using PTR records, but this
didn't work. I think I'm missing something.
Thanks in advance for the help!
