DNS Setup Tips
After setting up using DNS service, be sure to
save and quite.
Then Server Settting | service select named and hit restart.
The DNS configuration tool in server setting seems to have problem generating
the correct zone file in /var/named
The winrace.com.zone file
instead of containg the following:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA
winrace.com. root.localhost (
2 ; serial
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
604800 ; expire
86400 ; ttl
)
NS
rh8.winrace.com
rh8 IN A
192.168.0.201
jen IN A
192.168.0.179
rh8p1 IN A
192.168.0.200
It generates
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA
rh8.winrace.com. root.localhost (
2 ; serial
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
604800 ; expire
86400 ; ttl
)
rh8 IN NS
rh8.winrace.com
rh8 IN A
192.168.0.201
jen IN A
192.168.0.179
rh8p1 IN A
192.168.0.200
