Re: Allowable reverse mapping zone file names

File names? The file name is up to you. How you reference it in your DNS server is something else. That depends on your name server software. As far as question 2, depends on if the reverse zones were delegated to you or not. It depends on your ISP. Many do not delegate reverse lookup zon

RE: Question about dynamic IPv6-PTR-Generation

Just curious, is there a fundamental reason you have to oppose this beyond simply the scale? It's a cargo cult style extension of a not particularly useful IPv4 convention to IPv6. A much more useful convention that happens to be easier to implement is that hosts with static addresses have rD

Forwarding via different external networks

I have a rather unusual network with a gateway machine that connects to two ISPs: a slower DSL with a static IP and a faster cable (Comcast) with a DHCP IP. The gateway machine runs two instances of BIND (plus the usual firewalling): an authoritative one for a couple of domains (and only those doma

rndc on local host: need named running?

My plan is to have two remote, authoritative name servers (master and slave) for my owned domains. I would like to use rndc to control them from my local host. A couple of questions: 1. Does named need to be running on the local host? 2. Can I use rndc from my local host which doesn't have a fi

Allowable reverse mapping zone file names

I do not control 3-octet networks but need reverse mapping for my mail server. Two questions: 1. Where is the doc that completely describes the allowable reverse mapping zone file names? 2. When running my own authoritative name servers, do I need reverse mapping for anything other than my singl
