I have seen both cases where I do a lookup and get an ip. I have seen cases where the DNS server will complain. From a MTA's (receiving email server) perspective, a good deal of email will be rejected. I believe Exim out of the box will reject the mail. I reject by my choice in my configuration. Further, the MX must also point specifically to an A record. I hope that helps. -- Scott ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
bind as slave DNS to windows AD dns server
Hi, I'm trying to setup BIND named to be a slave a MS Windows 2008 server's AD domain. I set it up to be the slave and it works fine and I can resolv A records from the domain on the slave bind. However I can't resolve some SRV records like _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.DOMAIN Without this functionality a windows PC is unable to connect to the windows domain. At first it looked like the Windows DNS server gave BIND a partial zone file. Later after some googling I realized it has something to do with dynamic updates which I don't know how to set up and am not familiar with. Most google replies deal with setting up bind as the master server. Is it at all possible for BIND to act as a slave and forward the SRV updates to the master? If so, please point me to relevant documentation.

There should be six: DomainDNSZones.example.com ForestDNSZones.example.com _msdcs.example.com _sites.example.com _tcp.example.com _udp.example.com If you have these six zones slaved on your BIND server, and these zones are being transferred successfully, then there should be no problems. See the archives of this list, where there have been many BIND/AD-related postings over the past years. You wrote: Is it at all possible for BIND to act as a slave and forward the SRV updates to the master? I am not sure what you mean? The Windows Domain Controllers will send any SRV updates to the Windows DNS Server, if the AD structure is properly configured. Client machine might ask your BIND servers for SRV information, but the DCs should not be sending dynamic DNS updates to your BIND slave for SRV records. -- Barry S.

You should put in proper delegations for 3.1.10.in-addr.arpa and 4.1.10.in-addr.arpa. Typically you'd do it like this if you're using 10.1.0.0/16: ; in zone 1.10.in-addr.arpa $TTL ... @ IN SOA ... @ IN NS @ IN NS 3 IN NS 3 IN NS 4 IN NS 4 IN NS ; rest of content for 1.10.in-addr.arpa or like this if you're using 10.0.0.0/8: ; in zone 10.in-addr.arpa $TTL ... @ IN SOA ... @ IN NS @ IN NS 3.1 IN NS 3.1 IN NS 4.1 IN NS 4.1 IN NS ; rest of content for 10.in-addr.arpa Sam ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
Re: MX is a numeric IP

But, since there is no "125" top-level domain, or, obviously, any subdomains of of that domain, semantically it's incorrect. To put it another way, it's a correctly-formed record, pointing at something that doesn't exist. It's also a flag that expresses "hey everybody, I don't know how to edit zone files properly!". - Kevin ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
