Which FQDN does your mail server use for its EHLO? It should use the same name that's listed in reverse DNS. John On Thu, Mar 17, 2016 at 9:53 AM, Thomas Schulz wrote: > This is not a BIND question but I hope people here will know the answer. > We are switching service

Multiple A records and reverse DNS

This is not a BIND question but I hope people here will know the answer. We are switching service providers and I understand that many email SPAM prevention systems insist on the reverse DNS matching the forward DNS. If I have two A records for our mail server and the reverse record matches one of

Thank you for your response.. I thought of that earlier, but when I run the exact same configure options on an older machine of ours (for 9.10.1) it creates the output files just fine.. That is where it confused me. Thanks On Thu, Mar 17, 2016 at 5:18 PM, Mark Andrews wrote: >

Please confirm that if a DNS query is sent to the virtual address, the reply will be sourced from the virtual address. The reason for restricting BIND to a single address was mostly for firewall and administrative simplicity, but that's not a big deal as long as the same address is used both

I did not mean forwarders, but I had a case where the authoritative name servers for a domain were down for an extended period of time, exceeding the ttl for their records. I was curious if I could tell my DNS servers to serve these records for longer than the registered ttl. And I wanted to

You might want to try "ip a" vs ifconfig. RHEL7 uses Network Manager and in the past I've found some things don't show up in ifconfig output when doing alias/virtual interfaces. Usually even when other products (e.g. Oracle RAC/GRID) create virtual interfaces they still show up as valid

How do you actually expect this to ever work in real life? If a service knows it is going to be disconnected for a extended period of time there are plenty of third party DNS providers that can serve the zone and be delegated to. If it happens after the fact then they should spin up new servers

Tom, when your mail server establishes a connection to another host, the receiving host will likely automatically check the PTR record of the IP address your server used as it's source address. This PTR record should have a corresponding A record that points to the same IP address that was
