Re: Questions on how to setup Reverse DNS in bind 9
Matus UHLAR - fantomas, I don't remember the tools, but I know that the way cPanel handles stuff with Apache, it broke my website for me. Using the cPanel / WHM interface, I could tell Apache to listen on one IP or the other, not both, unfortunately. Some people (my wife's cell for instance) could make it to my site, but on her laptop, I could not. I believe this is because I redirect everything to port 443 and the SSL certs were setup for the first IP, not the second. I believe when I assigned the second IP address to the A record jetbbs.com, sometimes I'd go to the first IP and Apache would pick it up, other times, I'd go to the second IP and Apache wouldn't know how to handle it. Maybe it was because the SSL certs were created when I only had the one IP, I don't know. But it really messed things up and I had to remove the second IP again. I think if I manually edited the httpd.conf file and regenerated the SSL certs, things might have started working.

I believe this is because I redirect everything to port 443 and the SSL certs were setup for the first IP, not the second. huh? SSL certs should be created with required hostname, e.g. franklin.jetbbs.com in CommonName - not the IPs. you just need transfer both public and private keys to other server... just watch out if you don't make the private key available to others.
