DDNS

[Mike Black]

I just got mine working -- I didn't have localhost in the allow-transfer acl
section.  So I finallay got a "succeeded" message from dhcpd and named
started a journal file.

I'm not sure but I would imagine that dhcpd is just using the "option
domain-name-servers" to figure out who to notify.

I stepped from "no such domain" to "resolver failed" by adding a "." to
terminate the value of my "ddns-domainname" parameter.  I believe that
both my named.conf and dhcpd.conf are tailored for update.

I still haven't found out how to specify which DNS server(s) my DHCP
should update.  Where should it be stated?

(bind 8.2.2-p5, dhcp 3.0b2pl4, Solaris 2.6)
