hello misc@ I am in need of some guidance, I am trying to convert our name servers from Windows 2000 DNS to OpenBSD named I put this name server up last October and it has worked great, or at least i thought it did.
now that I am trying to host a mail server, I found out my reverse lookup is not working correctly we have a /25 ip block on our T1 here is my trouble, if i use nslookup from a computer that is set to use my name server(ns.wiscdns.com) my output is as follows: Sam# nslookup 12.192.128.135 Server: 12.192.128.131 Address: 12.192.128.131#53 135.128.192.12.in-addr.arpa name = pop3.DigitalDataWeb.Com. however if I change my name server to a local ISP (that I do not use for service) my output is as follows Sam$ nslookup 12.192.128.135 Server: 209.103.196.2 Address: 209.103.196.2#53 ** server can't find 135.128.192.12.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN I copied all of my named config files in a directory on a webserver along with a dmesg located here http://www.puffybsd.com/named/ I assume that if I want to host email for 10 different domains I have to have these set allow-recursion { any; }; auth-nxdomain yes; I am open to any suggestions anyone has, because this is my first set of BSD based name servers I do not have a 2nd name server setup yet I just need to do some more reading and figure out how they are different. as always Thank you very much for your help Sam Fourman Jr.
