Re: BIND and DNSSEC
Thank you for this. Had a look and it seems fairly easy. Not sure if that is a flippant remark. A question: is implementing dnssec a good enough reason to abandon split horizon DNS?

In our case (big zones, distant servers) we have found DLZ very inefficient because of huge overhead due to AXFRs. Another problem is absence of NOTIFIes.

I believe that thinking is no longer valid with laptops moving around. I assume you don't have enough public addresses to give everything its own address, I don't, my servers work through a NAT. They are behind NAT partly for lack of IPs and partly because I want to keep their other ports away from accidental exposure to script kiddies, I know more concerted efforts will do more harm. The typical server setup (for own servers) is that one name is used for setting up e.g. the mail server, the ideal situation for everybody is that whether I am in house or visiting you, if I have any internet access, I can read and send mail. Now if there is an internal zone with a different name, how will you set up the mail client? internal name is not accessible from outside and external name is not present in internal name space. -> two mail clients? changing setups when moving between networks? My solution is to have the exactly same names internally and externally, any client SW will just ask for the same server but the IP will differ with the network segment. IPv6 will change all that of course.

I must disagree with my learned colleague here. Introducing the extra subzone for the current subdomain also introduces extra work if DNSSEC is later introduced. It can also cause as many problems as it solves even in the absence of DNSSEC. As for the possibility of administrator error in the future, and making things futureproof, I would assert that stumbling when bad assumptions cause problems is the quickest way to learn the proper rules of DNS. Designing a system to match the possible wrong-headed assumptions of future admins results in a system akin to Microsoft's DNS snap-in for MMC, whereby users then develop mistakes in their thinking about how DNS works and therefore are unable to properly troubleshoot and fix real problems when they occur. I would prefer to promote a correct understanding of the actual rules of DNS.

As an employee of a company that makes a DNS management product, I can say that there is a strong temptation to think this way when designing such a product.

Two mail servers that must be synchronized within a minute, I don't think that is standard. The simple solution (small scale) is to have one server, sitting internally or in DMZ, the internal address record points to the 192.168.x.x address and the external address record points to the public address of the router, which then has a virtual server set up for it. This works flawless, I never consider if I am in or out of the house. -- Best regards Sten Carlsen No improvements come from shouting: "MALE BOVINE MANURE!!!" ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
