Hello there,
I'm trying to configure BIND (BIND 9.7.3) as a "catchall" DNS server for a parking domain service. This is a way to let
users/clients park their domains automatically by pointing primary and secondary DNS servers there. It should work with ANY TLD
(both generic and countrycodes).
In named.conf, I have created a test zone (for debugging porpuses, will be
removed once working):
zone "working.test" IN { type master; file "parked.domains"; };
and I have defined the "." zone as master:
zone "." IN { type master; file "parked.domains"; };
So, as you see, both working.test and "." use the same zone.
The parked.domains zone looks like this:
$TTL 86400
; parked.domains zone
@ IN SOA ns1.parkingdomini.com.
postmaster.ns1.parkingdomini.com. (
2011052800
86400
3600
604800
86400 )
NS ns1.parkingdomini.com.
NS ns2.parkingdomini.com.
MX 100 mail.parkingdomini.com.
IN A 1.2.3.4
* IN A 1.2.3.4
Here is the problem:
If I explicitly declare a zone in named.conf with "parked.domains" as zonefile, it behaves correctly. But as "catchall" is not
anwering correctly.
If I run:
dig working.test @localhost ANY
the ANSWER SECTION IS:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
working.test. 86400 IN SOA ns1.parkingdomini.com. postmaster.ns1.parkingdomini.com. 2011052800 86400 3600
604800 86400
working.test. 86400 IN NS ns1.parkingdomini.com.
working.test. 86400 IN NS ns2.parkingdomini.com.
working.test. 86400 IN MX 100 mail.parkingdomini.com.
working.test. 86400 IN A 1.2.3.4
while, if I dig anything else, the ANSWER SECTION IS:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
somethingelse.test. 86400 IN A 1.2.3.4
Why? The zone defined is exactly the same.
Any help is welcome.
Thank you
gian
