There is no point in forwarding just one domain to google recursive servers. 
Either forward ALL domains there (but in such case you could simply avoid

local BIND and point resolv.conf to google), or point the domain directly to
its servers instead of google.

Since BIND 9.8 and you can do it by using type static-stub instead of type
forward and use server-addresses instead of forwarders.


There are specific domains for eg mygeo1.mycompany.com. There are specific
authoritative  DNS servers which contain this record.


If you are trying to say that some of authoritative servers for a domain do
know about one record and others do not know, then the servers and the
domain are broken and they need to be fixed.


mygeo1.mycompany.com  is forwarded to myDNS1.mycompany.com,
myDNS2.mycompany.com, myDNS3.mycompany.com which are specific authoritative
DNS servers to mycompany.com But administrator does not know which one has
it


So, is that mytestdomain101.com or mycompany.com or mygeo1.mycompany.com?
It would be easier to look at the problem if you provided us correct data.

Re: Help on NXDOMAIN to try next forwarder in the list

2013-05-31 Thread sumsum 2000
Hi,
The google DNS server was only examples.. it can be some internal DNS
servers and external DNS servers. For eg 10.10.10.10; 120.10.13.12 etc.
where the DNS requests are being forwarded to..

There are issues with connectivity where the DNS entries are not synced up.
And these entries are all specific to  say mycompany.com where the DNS
are residing in several locations..
So when my local DNS is returning NXDOMAIN, the other locations which might
have the entries are not tried.

the example mytestdomain101.mycompany.com is an example where my list is
10.10.10.10; 120.10.13.12 for example..  i try 10.10.10.10 - NXDOMAIN
returned.. i want to try 120.10.13.12 before sending NXDOMAIN to my initial
request.

I hope this helps.
Thanks

Then it was bad example. You use type forward when you want to ask other
server to recursively resolve the domain instead of yours.the example with
google servers even supported this case.
As I have stated in my previous e-mail, you can use type static-stub if
you want specific server to answer your questions (non-recursively).


There are issues with connectivity where the DNS entries are not synced up.


How long do the issues usually persist? What kind are they, slaves not
fetching from master?  Or do you use forwarders and they return NXDOMAIN? 
In the first case you need to fix connectivity issues or make them less

important, in the second lower your SOA minimum value (which affects the
negative TTL)


And these entries are all specific to  say mycompany.com where the DNS
are residing in several locations..
So when my local DNS is returning NXDOMAIN, the other locations which might
have the entries are not tried.

This was answered already: It's impossible and illogical to ask again if
someone replies THERE IS NO SUCH RECORD.  You need to fix your DNS
infrastructure, not try to circumvent it's issues.

Re: Help on NXDOMAIN to try next forwarder in the list

2013-05-31 Thread John Wobus

I will add my +1:

NXDOMAIN does not mean I don't have a number for that name but  
someone else
might. It means The DNS lists this name as having no number (or  
whatever).

There's no more reason to look further than if you got a positive
answer from one server and still wondered if some other DNS server
might say something else. You might just as well recheck positive
A-record answers with other servers because they might say NXDOMAIN.

The only reason to look further is if you are monitoring
for inconsistencies/brokenness.

Settling time is an issue, e.g. when you don't have an
effective NOTIFY authoritative servers temporarily disagree
for a significant interval.  Still, if you get two answers
(one NXDOMAIN and one A record) from servers, there is no
way to tell which is correct, just as if you got two different
A-record answers.  It's up to the zone's maintainer to assure
the (hopefully temporary) inconsistency doesn't cause issues.

Theoretically, clients could query multiple servers, and we could have 
required them to include the SOA serial number in all replies, and the 
client could select the answer with the highest serial.

But that's not how the protocol was designed. DNS makes a trade-off 
between overhead and perfection -- it makes extensive use of caching, 
and it's understood that there will be windows during which different 
clients may have different views of a record.  TTLs, refresh times, and 
NOTIFY allow DNS administrators to limit the size of those windows.  
Application developers are expected to work around this at higher 
levels, as best they can.

focusfeatures.com issue

2013-05-31 Thread Carl Byington
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I don't see where a local dns server picked up the wrong data. It is
possible that this was a temporary error that has been fixed, but I am
curious.


dig FocusFeatures.com soa +short @pdns4.ultradns.org.
pdns1.ultradns.net. hostmaster.ge.com. 2013030400 10800 3600 2592000 900

That looks ok.

dig focusfeatures.com. soa +short
ns-1168.awsdns-18.org. awsdns-hostmaster.amazon.com. 1 7200 900 1209600
86400

I just did an 'rndc flushname focusfeatures.com.', redid the query, and
it picked up the proper 2013030400 soa.

If there is currently an inconsistency in focusfeatures.com, I am not
seeing it.

It looks like amazon is running a different version of that zone.
