... and i really thought i was down with BIND8/9...
i can't seem to find a solution to the following problem:
(sorry for the sizely post...)
mydomain.org is handled by ns{1,2}.mydomain.org.
so ns1.mydomain.org has a zone for mydomain.org, with an entry
mydomain.org IN NS ns1.mydomain.org
and ns2.mydomain.org slaves this zone.
now i would like to create a new zone, subdomain.mydomain.org,
and i want it to be controlled by two separate nameservers,
ns{1,2}.subdomain.mydomain.org.
i thought that i could simply create an entry
subdomain IN NS ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org
IN NS ns2.sybdomain.mydomain.org
within the mydomain.org zone, and then any request to
subdomain.mydomain.org and its children are delegated to
ns{1,2}.subdomain.mydomain.org.
the subdomain.mydomain.org zone contains an A record for @ as well as
A records for ns1 and ns2 plus some other A records for other hosts.
now, from a host that uses ns{1,2}.mydomain.org as its nameservers, i
am doing the following tests:
ns1.mydomain.org => 192.168.14.1
ns2.mydomain.org => 192.168.14.11
ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org => 192.168.14.13
ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org => 192.168.14.14
(1) direct queries agains ns{1,2}.subdomain.mydomain.org
(this all works for both).
fishbowl:~> host -t ns subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.13
subdomain.mydomain.org NS ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org
subdomain.mydomain.org NS ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org
fishbowl:~> host subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.13
subdomain.mydomain.org A 192.168.14.21
fishbowl:~> host ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.13
ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org A 192.168.14.13
fishbowl:~> host ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.13
ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org A 192.168.14.14
fishbowl:~> host mail.subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.13
mail.subdomain.mydomain.org A 192.168.14.7
===> ns{1,2}.subdomain.mydomain.org correctly resolve their
zones
(2) queries agains ns{1,2}.mydomain.org
(this all works for both)
fishbowl:~> host -t ns mydomain.org 192.168.14.1
mydomain.org NS ns1.mydomain.org
mydomain.org NS ns2.mydomain.org
fishbowl:~> host -t ns subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.1
subdomain.mydomain.org NS ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org
subdomain.mydomain.org NS ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org
!!! subdomain.mydomain.org NS host ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org does
not exist
!!! subdomain.mydomain.org NS host ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org does
not exist
subdomain.mydomain.org has lame delegation to
ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org
subdomain.mydomain.org has lame delegation to
ns2.subdomain.mydomain.org
fishbowl:~> host ns1.subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.1
ns1.subdomain.home.madduck.net does not exist (Authoritative answer)
fishbowl:~> host mail.subdomain.mydomain.org 192.168.14.1
ns2.subdomain.home.madduck.net does not exist (Authoritative answer)
do you have any ideas how i can configure this?
thanks,
