Hi Nick, I swear.., this thing was working after I had a fiddle this morning after sending my last e-mail off to you. Now I can't run nslookup on my domain: # nslookup www.vickiandstacey.com Server: localhost.vickiandstacey.com Address: 127.0.0.1
*** localhost.vickiandstacey.com can't find www.vickiandstacey.com:
Non-existent host/domain
#
Although I *am* able to resolve remote address okay:
# nslookup www.freebsd.org
Server: localhost.vickiandstacey.com
Address: 127.0.0.1
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.freebsd.org
Address: 216.136.204.117
#
Don't know why this suddenly stopped working, but take a look at what
I've got here:-
named.conf:
// If you enable a local name server, don't forget to enter 127.0.0.1
// into your /etc/resolv.conf so this server will be queried first.
// Also, make sure to enable it in /etc/rc.conf.
zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.root";
};
zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
type master;
file "master/localhost.rev";
};
zone
"1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.IP6.INT" {
type master;
file "master/localhost-v6.rev";
};
And my Zone statements:
zone "vickiandstacey.com" in {
type master;
file "master/vickiandstacey.com.db";
allow-query{ 127/8; 192.168.1/24; };
};
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "master/192.168.1.db";
allow-query{ 127/8; 192.168.1/24; };
};
This is what I thought was the solution for the zone files:
$TTL 3600
vickiandstacey.com. IN SOA Demon.vickiandstacey.com.
postmaster.vickiandstacey.com. (
2002101605 ; Serial
10800 ; Refresh
3600 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum TTL
@ IN NS Demon.vickiandstacey.com.
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
Demon IN A 192.168.1.8
snowball IN A 192.168.1.6
And for the reverse resolution:
$TTL 3600
1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. IN SOA Demon.vickiandstacey.com.
postmaster.vickiandstacey.com. (
2002101605 ; Serial
10800 ; Refresh
3600 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum TTL
@ IN NS Demon.vickiandstacey.com.
8 IN PTR Demon.vickiandstacey.com.
6 IN PTR snowball.vickiandstacey.com.
And /etc/resolv.conf:
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain vickiandstacey.com
search vickiandstacey.com
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 158.43.240.4
nameserver 158.43.240.3
#
I'm *definitely* at a loss here. Why would it work, and then stop????
Thanks for the suggestions., do come back to me with any ideas that you
might have.
