This is an example of classless in-addr.arpa delegation as described in
RFC 2317. Read the RFC for further details.
How do I configure named to do
reserve lookup for myself and I am running on a FC4 machine. Below are
some of what i had tried to do. Please take note, all IPs and domain are
not mine. Just an example. Thanks.
named.conf
options {
directory "/var/named";
};
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "named.local";
};
zone "64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "64.26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa";
};
OK so far.
zone "70.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "10.52.73.70";
};
This zone is the responsibility of your ISP, not you, so you don't want
or need this one. Your ISP should have a bunch of CNAME records in this
zone that point into your zone, such as:
64.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 64.64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa.
65.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 65.64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa.
66.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 66.64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa.
67.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 67.64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa.
If you had used real IP addresses then I could have checked that these
were in place. Diagnosing DNS problems is very difficult if you
obfuscate things by changing names/addresses. If you need to follow up
in this thread, please use real names and addresses.
zone "dns1.mydomain.com" IN {
type master;
file "dns1.mydomain.com";
};
Surely you mean:
zone "mydomain.com" IN {
type master;
file "mydomain.com";
};
include "/etc/rndc.key";

Here you have specified A records for hosts such as
ftp.dns1.mydomain.com, dns2.dns1.mydomain.com rather than
ftp.mydomain.com and dns2.mydomain.com, because of the error in the zone
specification above. You probably want:
/var/named/mydomain.com

Here you are specifying too much data on the left side; the origin of
this zone is 64/26.73.52.10.in-addr.arpa so you should not repeat this
information in the zone file. What you want is:
$TTL 86400

80 PTR dns2.mydomain.com.

This zone should be on your ISP's nameservers, not yours. You don't need
this file.
