Hi, this is sort of a newbish type question, and I can't figure out
what is going on with my local domain. I'm also not 100% sure if this
problem is related to my Bind DNS setup, or whether it is a problem
with how I got my windows networking setup, hopefully someone will be
able to tell me one or the other.
I have bind running on my linux box, and I have setup a local domain
"xxxx.sys" in bind.
In bind, I have to zone files setup.
One is for 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa, in the named.conf file showing:
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "primary/1.168.192.in-addr.arpa";
allow-update {
192.168.1.0/24;
};
allow-query {
192.168.1.0/24;
127.0.0.0/8;
localhost;
};
notify no;
};
One is for the xxxx.sys domain, setup in the named.conf file showing:
zone "xxxx.sys" IN {
type master;
file "primary/xxxx.sys";
allow-update {
192.168.1.0/24;
};
allow-query {
192.168.1.0/24;
localhost;
127.0.0.0/8;
};
};
The contents of 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa is the following:
$TTL 3D
@ IN SOA ns.xxxx.sys.
hostmaster.xxxx.sys. (
2006041901

2H
4W
1D )
;
xxxx.sys. IN MX 10 mail.xxxx.sys. ;Mail Server
router.xxxx.sys. IN A 192.168.1.1 ;DD-WRT
slacker2.xxxx.sys. IN A 192.168.1.9 ;Slacker2

xxxx.sys. IN NS ns1.xxxx.sys. ;Name Server

When I try to ping mail.xxxx.sys from my windows machine (192.168.1.2 &
192.168.1.8) it cannot find the IP address.
I can run nslookup using 192.168.1.9 as the server, and successfully do
an IP lookup on mail.xxxx.sys
I definetely have the NS server for the network card set to
192.168.1.9, verified using ipconfig /all and looking at the list of
DNS servers allowed for the NIC. When I try pinging various servers
from the linux machine, that is also running dns (192.168.1.9) I can
ping any server on the domain. . . such as bad-ath64.xxxx.sys and it
finds the IP address just fine.
Bind starts up just fine, loads the proper xxxx.sys file, and the
correct serial number for the zone that I set.
What am I doing wrong here? Is this a problem with bind? Or is this a
problem with my windows networking configuration?
Thanks for the help!
