I just renewed xcat.org for another 10 years. Both of the registered DNS servers need to change. Speculation.org could go away at any point; I no longer have any control there. ns.sense.net isn't resolving any more. Let me know and I'll change them to whatever you want. ---

[xcat-user] xCAT domain name limitation

2011-08-02 Thread Lissa Valletta
Currently, even in the 2.6.2 release xCAT does not support a domain name that does not have any "dots" in it. For example if your domain is "cluster.net", it is fine. If you domain is "cluster", makedns will not work. A defect 3384808 has been opened. Lissa K. Valletta 2-3/T12 Poughkeepsie, NY

I just released 2.6.2 with numerous fixes for makedns. You might want to upgrade to it and also take note of the release notes for 2.6.1 and 2.6.2. There are some requirements on setup for makedns to work with the new ddns.pm. At least at that point you will be working with the lastest makedns
