Hi Amitay
s4 seemed to create the forward zone by itself. We added the reverse
zone as you mentioned. Our win 7 clients inject the forward zone with
their details automatically by DHCP.
For our Linux clients authenticating against s4, we had to use fixed IP.
This is with bind9. Could you take a look at this for us?
hh1:/home/steve # samba-tool dns add 192.168.1.2 hh3.site hh10.hh3.site
A 192.168.1.10
Password for [Administrator at HH3.SITE]:
Record added successfully
hh1:/home/steve # samba-tool dns add 192.168.1.2 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa
11 PTR hh11.hh3.site
Password for [Administrator at HH3.SITE]:
Record added successfully
hh1:/home/steve # host hh10.hh3.site
hh10.hh3.site has address 192.168.1.10
hh1:/home/steve # host 192.168.1.10
10.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer hh10.hh3.site.
It seems to be working. Is this the correct way of proceeding?
Cheers,
Steve
