Hi
I'm having a couple of problems with a FreeBSD (4.3-RELEASE, BIND
8.2.3-REL) resolver-only nameserver (called nyx).
Problem 1:
It won't dump it's cache. If I do kill -INT <pid> the logfile prints
May 2 16:03:39 nyx named[37148]: dumping nameserver data
but never prints the 'finished dumping nameserver data'. It used to
work, but stopped working around the time I upgraded to -release...
Problem 2:
This could well be me not quite understanding how DNS works. Whenever I
change a record in one of the zones that our main nameservers are
authoritative for the resolving nameserver (nyx) doesn't pick it up. I
am incrementing the serial number which is confirmed if I dig the SOA
from nyx. Does the resolver not query the authoritative server until the
zone TTL expires?
/etc/namebd/named.conf:
options {
directory "/etc/namedb";
allow-query {
127.0.0.0/8;
195.26.32.0/19;
212.158.59.0/24;
};
statistics-interval 5;
};
logging {
channel stats {
file "/var/log/named.stats";
};
channel debugfile {
file "/var/log/named.debug";
print-category yes;
};
category statistics { stats; };
};
zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.root";
};
zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
type master;
file "localhost.rev";
};
zone "59.158.212.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "59.158.212.in-addr.arpa.zone";
};
59.128.212.in-addr.arpa is there so our pop server (which use nyx for
resolution) don't complain about no reverse records for that IP block.
The owner of the block won't delegate the reverse record to us.
Thanks for any help,
