I am trying to configure DNS caching-only server for an HP-UX 11.00 server
with BIND 9.20.
Here is the content of the following files:
named.conf:
# Name: named.conf
options {
directory "/etc";
};
#
# Local Domains
#
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "db.127.0.0";
};
#
# Cache Records
#
zone "." {
type hint;
file "db.cache";
};
#
db.127.0.0:
; ;=========================================================================
; Name: /etc/db.127.0.0
;=========================================================================
;
;
; DOMAIN: 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.
;
0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. IN SOA hedgehog.ca.boeing.com. (
96021700 ; Serial /*day versions*/
7200 ; Refresh /*2 hrs*/
900 ; Retry /*15 minutes*/
864000 ; Expire /*10 days*/
999999999) ; Minimum TTL /*infinite*/
;
0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. IN NS hedgehog.ca.boeing.com.
;
1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR localhost.
; ;=========================================================================

99999999 IN NS hera.boeing.com.
99999999 IN NS hermes.boeing.com.
99999999 IN NS jupiter.boeing.com.
;

venus.boeing.com. 99999999 IN A xxx.42.5.51
hera.boeing.com. 99999999 IN A xxx.52.1.11

(I have xed out the first octet on purpose for this e-mail)
Here is the output from the syslog.log file for named:
Jan 13 17:26:58 hedgehog named [4116]: starting BIND 9.2.0

Here is the error message I get when I do an nslookup:
*** Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: Server failed
I don't have rndc.key set up. I am also wondering why I am seeing
"unexpected end of input" messages in the syslog.log file. Any help or
insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
