Hi Folks,
I have two name servers, one of which (65.207.130.4) is primary for a bunch
of domains, the other is secondary for those domains. I'm getting this error
message on the secondary server for two of my reverse files:
Jul 23 18:10:19 bluegrass named[126]: Ready to answer queries.
Jul 23 18:10:20 bluegrass named[126]: Err/TO getting serial# for
"131.207.65.in-addr.arpa"
Jul 23 18:10:20 bluegrass named[126]: Err/TO getting serial# for
"63.171.176.in-addr.arpa"
Jul 23 18:10:20 bluegrass named-xfer[3477]: [65.207.130.4] not
authoritative
for 131.207.65.in-addr.arpa, SOA query got rcode 0, aa 0, ancount 0,
aucount
2
Jul 23 18:10:20 bluegrass named-xfer[3478]: [65.207.130.4] not
authoritative
for 63.171
I did a Google search of this newsgroup looking for a solution, but all of
the answers that I saw said to look in the log file of the primary
nameserver to see why it thinks it is not authoritative. There's nothing in
the log file of the primary server. When I reload the primary this is all
that shows in the log:
Jul 23 14:00:50 i2000 named[107]: reloading nameserver
Jul 23 14:00:50 i2000 named[107]: couldn't create pid file
'/var/run/named.pid'
Jul 23 14:00:50 i2000 named[107]: Ready to answer queries.
The relevant entry in my named.conf file for 176.171.63.in-addr.arpa looks
like this:
zone "176.171.63.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "M/176.171.63.in-addr.arpa";
};
The relevant entry in the named.boot file (yes I know it's an old BIND)
looks like this:
secondary 63.171.176.in-addr.arpa 65.207.130.4
176.171.63.in-addr.arpa
The top part of the 176.171.63.in-addr.arpa file on the primary server
looks
like this:
$TTL 3h
@ IN SOA ns.jellico.net. hostmaster.jellico.net. (
2002072305 ; Serial
3h ; Refresh after 3 hours
1h ; Retry after 1 hour
1w ; Expire after 1 week
1h ) ; Negative caching TTL of 1 hour
; Name Servers
IN NS ns.jellico.net.
Could someone help me solve this? Thanks so much.
