I have set up a DNS server with the help of two helpful tutorials:
http://linuxconfig.org/linux-dns-server-bind-configuration
http://ulyssesonline.com/2007/11/07/how-to-setup-a-dns-server-in-ubuntu/
I am using:
Ubuntu
Bind9
and had issues I tried negating on my own thanks to a question I posted here earlier that pointed out my mistake of using rfc 1918 addresses in my previous SOA record:
$TTL 3D
@ IN SOA ns.thejarbar.org. email. (
13112012
28800
3600
604800
38400
);
thejarbar.org. IN A 10.0.0.42
@ IN NS ns.thejarbar,org.
yuccalaptop IN A 10.0.0.19
ns IN A 10.0.0.42
gw IN A 10.0.0.138
www IN CNAME thejarbar.org.
$TTL 600
0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. IN SOA ns.thejarbar.org. email. (
13112012
28800
3600
604800
38400
);
0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. IN NS ns.thejarbar.org.
42 IN PTR thejarbar.org.
19 IN PTR yuccalaptop.thejarbar.org.
138 IN PTR gw.thejarbar.org.
I read the ranges that are used under rfc 1918 and modified my routers resource pool to assign LAN devices IP(s) within the 30.0.0.0 range and now modified my SOA to:
$TTL 600
@ IN SOA ns.thejarbar.org. email. (
13112012
28800
3600
604800
38400
);
thejarbar.org. IN A 30.0.0.42
@ IN NS ns.thejarbar,org.
yuccalaptop IN A 10.0.0.19
ns IN A 30.0.0.42
gw IN A 30.0.0.138
www IN CNAME thejarbar.org.
$TTL600
0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. IN SOA ns.thejarbar.org. email. (
13112012
28800
3600
604800
38400
);
0.0.30.in-addr.arpa. IN NS ns.thejarbar.org.
42 IN PTR thejarbar.org.
19 IN PTR yuccalaptop.thejarbar.org.
138 IN PTR gw.thejarbar.org.
I can ping my nameserverver ns.thejarbar.organd it gives me the correct isp IP address, but my domain never seems to propagate to my nameserver.
I have searched for a concise tutorial that covers setting up a DNS with a nameserver that hosts (my) or the site. I am fully aware that this is not recommended and am using this for my learning purposes.
Getting to the question, due to the lack of information in tutorials I looked at (nothing about rfc 1918 and no example of swapping these with ISP IP) is my router modification going to help me as it does not seem to be. I have also tried as recommended using my ISP IP instead of the values I posted. My site never propagated to my nameserver. What could be causing this?
I have run dig thejarbar.org @88.89.190.171 and get an authorative response.
Can anyone assist me with the final steps I may be missing here?
