Hi, I am trying to configure a subnet (example: 10.1.16.32/27<http://10.1.26.96/27>) zone files for internal domains, and have hard times with setting up the reverse lookup zone file. The couple examples I found on the internet didn't help much. This example taken from the Pro Bind and DNS book was the closest to what I wanted to achieve but unfortunately it didn't work for me due to an error: http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch9/reverse.html
For instance adding a zone definition in /etc/named.conf like this forced the DNS server to complain about bad name of the zone: zone "27/32.16.1.10.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "16.1.10.in-addr.arpa.db"; }; named-checkconf -z /etc/named.conf produces the following errors zone 27/32.16.1.10.in-addr.arpa/IN: loading from master file > 16.1.10.in-addr.arpa.db failed: bad name (check-names) > zone 27/32.16.1.10.in-addr.arpa/IN: not loaded due to errors. > _default/27/32.16.1.10.in-addr.arpa/IN: bad name (check-names) 16.1.10.in-addr.arpa.db content > $ORIGIN 27/32.16.1.10.in-addr.arpa. > $TTL 300 > @ IN SOA ns1.example.com. i...@example.com ( > 2014033102 ; serial > 300 ; time to refresh > 3600 ; time to retry > 604800 ; time to expire > 300) ; time to live > IN NS ns1.example.com > IN NS ns1.example.com. > $GENERATE 34-61 $ IN PTR ${0,3,d}.perf01.example.com I tried adding check-names ignore; to the zone definition in named.conf, which removed the bad-name errors but it didn't resolve the reverse lookup problem for this subnet. Thanks Dimitar
