Hi folks...
Thanks to Dan & Randy for their replies to "Help startingDNS".
I have got problems! - ain't we all ;^)
I am sorry...I am a bit of a dummy but I'm trying!
Problems are as follows:
a) When Routed runs stuff like PINE Telnet etc wont run! Appears to
be looking at the modem's semi-permanent connection!??
b) When routed option is set to NO Pine LYNX etc all work fine but
mail being delivered can't arrive.
Says that "554 <bsd@smmc.qld.edu.au> local congiguration error exists.
554 MX entry smmc.qld.edu.au. points back to smmcroute.smmc.qld.edu.au"
What I have done(brief):
I copied my old servers /etc/named to new machine...no worky on
new set up! Old = FreeBSD 2.1.5, new =FreeBSD 2.2.2
Can you help? More details are below...Thanks for that kind peoples.
**********************************************************
What I'm trying to do:
...Set up a V 2.2.2 server for my LAN on a brand new drive on the SAME
machine as I currently have a V 2.1.5 server working (but some small
hassles e.g. squid and sometimes named hang up) The hardware
works fine , no conflicts, drivers etc work OK.
What I want to happen:
...For this machine to be a web/mail etc server with a DNS proxy
router/gateway etc for my school's LAN - just
like it currently is on the other hard drive (I swap the drives over
while I'm doing all this...I have also saved /etc/ppp /etc/namedb
sysconfig to a floppy from old system for convenience)
What I did:
a) Copied the ppp file (although I changed it to use iijppp with
/dev/cuaa1 and not /dev/modem)
b) Copied /etc/namedb to new system (no IPs will be different)
c) did the standard stuff...
1) created /etc/start_if.tun0
2) changed rc.conf to reflect sysconfig of old system
(p.s. it is attached below)
3) put PINE LYNX etc but not webserver yet on it
4) Put MGETTY on it but not yet configured
(for later dialin use)
What it does:
a) dials out ok and connects
b) fails to autostart named with or without routed set to start
c) with routed & named...Local software hangs...Pine lynx etc.
appears to blip the modem regularly!...perhaps waiting...why
would PINE seek to do that?
d) with routed not started but named started, mail won't arrive
correctly from outside...sendmail interrupts & says the 554 error
as described above.
What I might do:
a) GIVE UP...but I don't want to I must be close!
