Hi,
I have FreeBSD 3.3 and am having trouble running DNS.
I have gone through ORA book "DNS and BIND" over and
over and over but I still cannot set it up correctly
to be authoritative for my own little net.
My 3.3 system is the server that connects by modem to
my ISP with a dynamic IP and uses PPP to interface
to it.
My routing works, since all of my systems can ftp,
browse, etc. the internet.
I can ping any system on my net or those outside of
my net but I suspect this is because of the hosts
files.
I had DNS working on my 2.2 system, but somehow it
just
has not worked since I installed 3.3.
Can anyone help?
Here are my resolv.conf, localhost.rev, named.conf
files.
I have removed much of the comments that were
originally
in the named.conf file
-----resolv.conf
nameserver mercury.planets.net
domain planets.net
