Hi all,
I have a question about BIND and dynamic IP addresses which I'm hoping
someone can help with. I am using Telus' ADSL and am doing my own primary
DNS. The way I have it working is as follows.
My dynamic IP dns server is primary. The secondary DNS server is a machine
on cable with a static IP. I then have two or three other servers which get
the zone from the static wave server. The problem is DNS change
notification. BIND sends DNS change notifies out to all slave servers if it
is a master server. However, I want my machine to only notify the wave
server. I then want the wave server to send notify requests out to the
server(s) which use it as a master. That way, the nameserver actually
appears to be on a static IP.
One other question, can an NS entry for a zone point to a CNAME or must it
point to an A record?
Best regards,
Shane
