I added a new webmail server several weeks ago. I made the pert. DNS
entries to the zone file and the reverse lookup file. Within my
domain using my DNS servers everything resolves correctly. When I do
an nslookup for 204.111.40.8 I get newproxy.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
However, outside my domain I get
UnKnown can't find 204.111.40.10: Non-existent domain. Now the rest
of my ip's resolve correctly. Heres my zone file:
$ORIGIN .
$TTL 259200 ; 3 days
harrisonburg.k12.va.us IN SOA ns1.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
rlineweaver.harrisonburg.k12.va.us. (
2006112601 ; serial
28800 ; refresh (8 hours)
7200 ; retry (2 hours)
2419200 ; expire (4 weeks)
86400 ; minimum (1 day)
)
NS ns1.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
NS ns2.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
Heres the entry for newproxy:
newproxy A 204.111.40.10
Heres my reverse dns file for this zone:
$ORIGIN .
$TTL 259200 ; 3 days
40.111.204.in-addr.arpa IN SOA ns1.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
rlineweaver.harrisonburg.k12.va.us. (
2006112601 ; serial
28800 ; refresh (8 hours)
7200 ; retry (2 hours)
2419200 ; expire (4 weeks)
86400 ; minimum (1 day)
)
NS ns1.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
NS ns2.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
Heres the entry for Newproxy in reverse dns
10 PTR newproxy.harrisonburg.k12.va.us.
Heres my named.conf spelling out my upstream dns notifiers:
options {
directory "/var/named";
forward first;
forwarders {
204.111.1.36;
204.111.1.35;
};
Ive added several servers in the past with no issues. Im using bind
9.2.3. I cant figure out why other servers arent getting the updates.
Im not seeing any error's logged at all.
thanks,
