Hello all,
I'm trying to get this netreg box up and running and I hit a snag with
DNS. I'm using RedHat 9, Bind 9.2.1.
Whenever i try to ping my netreg box (or anything else) from a client pc
it tells me "could not find host" instead of resolving the ip of my netreg
box.
Here is a copy of my named.conf file:
// named.conf for NetReg
// Belongs at /etc/named.conf
server 192.168.0.10 {
bogus yes;
};
options {
directory "/var/named";
recursion no;
;
}
zone "." {
type master;
file "db.root";
};
My db.root file (located at /var/named/db.root):
. IN SOA netreg.hbu.edu. root.netreg.hbu.edu. (
1 ; Serial
10800 ; refresh
3600 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum TTLy
IN NS netreg.hbu.edu.
netreg 86400 IN A 192.168.0.10
*. 86400 IN A 192.168.0.10
I ran a "named-checkzone . db.root" and it came up with this:
zone ./IN: could not find NS and/or SOA records
zone ./IN: has 0 SOA records
zone ./IN: has no NS records
I try to run a "named-checkconf" and it looks like it's not doing
anything....
Here's a copy of the named reference in the syslog:
Nov 4 08:52:11 netreg named[1642]: starting BIND 9.2.1 -u named
Nov 4 08:52:11 netreg named[1642]: using 1 CPU
Nov 4 08:52:11 netreg named: named startup succeeded

Nov 4 08:52:12 netreg named[1642]: zone ./IN: could not find NS and/or
SOA records
Nov 4 08:52:12 netreg named[1642]: zone ./IN: has 0 SOA records
Nov 4 08:52:12 netreg named[1642]: zone ./IN: has no NS records
Nov 4 08:52:12 netreg named[1642]: running
I'm definitely not a linux guru, but i'm wading through it... dhcp seems
to be working properly... the httpd service is running as well... I'm
playing with the source code for SMCs implementation of netreg... haven't
got DNS working properly as of yet (with this load - was working properly
a few loads ago - had everything working with netreg1.3rc2)...
Anyone know what i'm missing here? Or what i can try next...
Thanks,
Robert
