Subject: Help with forwarders
I have setup bind-8.2.23p1 on a box running Red Hat 7.0. This is a
DNS I have setup for out internal use, and so far has worked
correctly. However, our email is offsite, as is our DNS, both of which
are hosted by XO. I would like to have any queries for any addresses
hosted by XO's DNS servers to be served up by my internal DNS, especially
for smtp and pop3 requests. I tried setting up a forwarders entry in
named.conf, and I still get an error when trying to do a lookup on
smtp and pop3. This is also interferrng with our Bugzilla setup, since it
cannot email users their passwords after account creation.
Heres my named.conf:
options {
directory "/var/named";
forwarders {
207.155.183.72;
};
};
zone "bluetiger.com" in {
type master;
file "db.bluetiger.com";
};
zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "db.192.168.0";
};
zone "." in {
type hint;
file "named.root";
};
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "db.127.0.0";
};
I also tried putting the forwarders entry in the db.bluetiger.com zone
entry, without success. I am not even sure if forwarders will do what I
want.
