On Tue, 2 Oct 2007, Alain Wolf spaketh thusly: -}Hi Randy, -} -}I fell in the same hole on my first setup. -}There is no such thing as 127.0.0.1 in a FreeBSD Jail. -}There is just the IP, which the Jail is configured for. -}I am not a developer, but as far as I understand, a Jail and its IP, is -}some kind of virtualization, which can not contain any virtualized -}environment inside itself again. At least not in 6.x -} -}So it looks that 127.0.0.1 would be an additional IP like any other one, -}which is NOT possible in FreeBSD Jails. -} -}I read promising things about a fully virtualized IP environment in -}FreeBSD 7.x, where we can do a lot more than this, but we have to wait for -}that. -} -}After I realized that, I redesigned my plans and I liked them even better. -}My DJB-DNS setup is now as follows, and works flawless. -} -}dnscache runs in its own Jail in every physical machine, caching DNS -}queries for all other Jails on the same machine. -} -}Two copies of TinyDNS run each in its own Jail too. Providing a (rather -}expensive) Split-Horizon DNS Solution. -} -}Hope this helps
Indeed it does. Tnx heaps and loads Alain. Now I can stop focusing on getting tinydns to work on 127.0.0.1 in the jails and investigate alternatives to do what we need to do(probably quite similar to what you've outlined). Woo-hoo! Ah do love freebsd and the wonderful people on these lists. Later gators. -- Randy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 765.983.1283 <*> Love with your heart, think with your head; not the other way around. _______________________________________________ freebsd-jail@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-jail To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
