Hello... I am trying to setup an SRV record to make clients email setups easier for them without having to know the server name or port numbers, yada yada... When I consult the docs for ispconfig3 it does not show what the Target field is for?? I am new to SRV records... I want to setup a record for IMAP lets say, so in BIND zone file directly I would add something like.... _imap._tls.domain.com. IN SRV 0 0 993 mail.domain.com. How is this done in Ispconfig with the fields that are there; Hostname: Target: Weight: Port: Priority: Thanks...
The ispconfig manual contains a detailed example and description of srv records on page 212 and 213. As howtoforge subscriber you can downloaf the manual here trough your subscription: http://www.howtoforge.com/download-the-ispconfig-3-manual
Ya, thanks for pointing that out, I did check and there is a dependency with the fields and example pictures, this is what i meant... The screenshot in the docs show the fields: Hostname: Service record: Priority: TTL: Active: But current ISPCONFIG version has: Hostname: Target: Weight: Port: Priority: TTL: Active: So the way the info is entered is different.... I tried entering a SRV record and when i check with an online checker it tells me no SRV records exist, even though i can see them in the zone file, and BIND does not complain about any syntax errors... Sorry to be a pain Till Thanks
Yes, you are right. Did not remember that we changed the fields, will be covered in the next release of the manual. Example for an srv record like you would use it for office 365: Hostname: _sip._tls.example.com. target: sipdir.online.lync.com. Weight: 1 Port: 443 Priority: 100 TTL: 3600 Active: yes Please note the dots at the end of hostname and target, they are importnant as dns records of fully qulaified domain names have to end with a dot.
