Hi again, I have a question about IP-s and virtual hosts. Today i have routed a class of 265 on my server-s IP. The server has a optical fiber connection and runs Fedora Core 4. I vand to run some irc services on it like eggdrop, boucers, even IRCD and radio servers. My question is: What i have to do to make the ip's to answer to the revers DNS. I mean, when i tries /dns xx.xx.xx.xx (one of the ip's) to get : xx.xx.xx.xx resolved to my-vhost-is-nice.ath.cx for example. From what i know i must make some changes in named.conf. Can someone tell me exactily what should i do? Thank you in advance, Alex.
Usually this is something the ISP that gave you the IP addresses has to do. Ask them, and if they say you can do that yourself, have a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/traditional_dns_howto
I have added zone "86.106.86.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "named.unu"; allow-update { none; }; }; in /etc/named.conf and i have created named.unu wich contains: @ IN SOA mojoiua.netone.ro. root.localhost. ( 2006012103; serial 28800; refresh, seconds 7200; retry, seconds 604800; expire, seconds 86400 ); minimum, seconds ; NS ns1.netone.ro.; 5 IN PTR alex.mojoiua.netone.ro mojoiua.netone.ro resolves into my server's ip. From what i read on that tutorial, and from what i have in named.conf and named.unu alex.mojoiua.netone.ro should resolve in to 86.106.86.5 but it does not. Did i made any mistake? My server's IP is 89.34.209.254 and my IP class in vich i vand to make vhosts is 86.106.86.0/255 . Also i saw this error: [root@CrazyDesign etc]# nslookup 86.106.86.5 Server: 89.34.208.2 Address: 89.34.208.2#53 ** server can't find 5.86.106.86.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN I also triyed to do like this: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/69058-dns.html but no success
Please use the full path to named.unu in your named.conf. Again, did you ask your ISP to do this for you?
