Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I run a small platform where there are about 30 PCs, all on the same 10.0.1.x subnet (according to the RFC-1918). I have a translating gateway (using FreeBSD and nat) to the internal enterprise network, where "standard", legal IP addresses are used. I have set up a DNS for my internal network, which can forward queries to the enterprise DNS server (as all outgoing packets go through natd, this allows people in the inside network to surf the intranet and mount NFS partitions from outside NFS servers). My problem is that I cannot get the reverse mapping to work : I have set up named with two files for direct and reverse mappings and only the direct mapping works. From what I've read in the named doc, I may have to create a "root server" for the 10.x.y.z (10.in-addr.arpa zone), but, so far I haven't foud how to do it. Any taker ? TfH PS : this on FreeBSD 3.2-R, using named 8.1.2 quick'n dirty network drawing : enterprise nat-ing inside (other network -- gateway --(10.0.1.x subnet)--DNS server-- PCs) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
