isc trust anchor

2010-09-15 Thread sami's strat
If I have two domains, say a.us and b.com a.us is (dnssec) signed and the parent domain has a copy of the DS keys. Is there a way to have host.b.com run dnssec aware queries against a.us? I was thinking of setting up and using the ISC trust anchor with both domains. Would that work? Are there

Trouble with host and DNSSEC

I am having trouble resolving the host name cod.ed.gov which I believe may be dnssec related. If I run dig with the +cdflag option I get what appears to be a proper response: ; <<>> DiG 9.7.1-P2-RedHat-9.7.1-2.P2 <<>> +cdflag cod.ed.gov ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opco

Thanks Casey! The link to dnsviz.net also explains part of why I was getting confused. It appears that there are not any DS records at the root (yet?) for the .gov level. This explains why when I did a dig with +sigchase +topdown options it was failing to validate way earlier in the chain.

Name server selection in Bind >=9.6

2010-09-15 Thread Ricardo Oliveira
Hello, A question about ns selection in bind. It seems up to bind 9.5, it selects the ns with the lowest rtt, but there were some changes in bind 9.6 that makes it doing random selection, from https://www.isc.org/software/bind/new-features/9.6 : "As a security improvement to make forgery a

Second dig lookup not the same as the first

2010-09-15 Thread Scott Haneda
Hello, I have set up a new BIND/named server, being backed by DLZ in this case, though I don't think that will have any bearing on my question. This NS is not publicly known or listed as an NS anywhere as of yet, so it is only my own testing that has hit the machine. If I perform a dig request,

Hi, No, I am not running any firewall on the client side at all. I can perform lookups elsewhere that behave as I would expect. I also performed these tests on another machine that has a more current and non Apple dig as well. The server is RHEL, not Mac OS X. I have deployed many named serv
