Re: [Samba] Internal DNS CNAME not working

2013-04-02 Thread Wayne Andersen

I upgraded to 4.0.4 and still did not have any success with CNAME records.
As it turns out the problem was the syntax I was using to create the 
records.

You need to include the full domain name and the period at the end.

I think the samba-tool should validate these CNAME records when adding.
Does anyone think that this raises to the level of a bug?


bin/samba-tool dns add 127.0.0.1 mydomain.com my-server CNAME samba-001 
-Uadministrator


bin/samba-tool dns add 127.0.0.1 mydomain.com my-server CNAME 
samba-001.mydomain.com. -Uadministrator

You are still using samba-4.0.0 - a lot of stuff has changed
over time - recent is 4.0.4.
I'm a bit wondering about
  ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available
in the failing dig command.

In former samba versions there _was_ a [global] smb.conf option
recursive queries = yes

samba-tool testparm -v --suppress-prompt should list all
available options.

Can you try that one, if valid?

Cheers, Günter

ps - i possible, you should upgrade samba!

Centos 6.4 64bit

I have just sent the details of strace and dig, in a separate mail
Frankly I do not know how to read the results.

dnstracer -v my-server.mydomain.com fails with, return code 3 (Name error)
dnstracer -v -q cname my-server.mydomain.com succeeds, returns Resource 
data (9)samba-001


It looks like my resolver only checks the local dns for A records.

which unix/linux distro and version are you running?

Try
strace ping -c1 my-server.mydomain.com
and look for errors.

I did the same tests here on opensuse (samba git master) and
don't see that failure.

What do you get with:
dig @localhost my-server.mydomain.com   ?
