I have a DSL connection with 6 IPs (including the gateway). I am having no end of problems getting it to work. I've gotten it completely screwed up. If there is anyone out there who has a moment to straighten out my named.conf and zone file mess, I'd really really appreciate it. I've pored over RFC2317 several times, and am none the wiser for it. Whatever technical facility I thought I had has been blown far far away from me, and may be lost for good. I've fiddled with this for hours. I'm frustrated. I don't even want to think about it anymore. If someone could just send me back the corrected files, I'd be (very)*(grateful)^1000. I've obviously gotten in over my head technically. My addresses are 216.102.57.9-14 Using 'dig @ns1.pbi.net -a 9.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa' and so on, I figured out how PacBell Internet has done the delegation: 9.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 9.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. 10.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 10.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. 11.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 11.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. 12.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 12.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. 13.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 13.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. 14.57.102.216.in-addr.arpa. 2H IN CNAME 14.8.57.105.216.in-addr.arpa. ...which goes from one Class B network to another. (I don't know if that's at all relevant to my problem, but... there it is anyway. At least I still know what a Class B network is (I think... ) ) Anyway, here is the most recent edition of my DNS configuration. Please please please help!!!!!!!
