Sorry all again:
I don't mean to flood my mails to the list but my previous post was a
little messed up as i cut and paste a lot trying not to show my real
domain.
Now i'd like to send the whole thing again with corrections:
********
First, please bear with me; i know this is not the place to ask about
BIND; but i'm hoping that, someone out there could help me. Also, sorry
for the lengthy post but most of it is to explain my scenario. And I
believe, the answer to my question will be very short.
Basically, I tried to delegate a reverse sub-domain (a subnet smaller than
/24). I could query a PTR record from the parent server but i could not
from the child server where all the configuration of the sub-domain
belongs.
Here is the detail:
I have my home network connected to my office network with a registered
domain (office.net, for example) with the scenario below. On the Office
DNS server (ns1.office.net), I would like to delegate both the forward
sub-domain home.office.net and reverse one 192.168.9.32/28 to the Home DNS
server (ns1.home.office.net).
My problem is that, on the Home server, i could not do this query:
$ host 192.168.9.33
Host 33.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
While from the Office server, i can:
$ host 192.168.9.33
33.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa is an alias for 33.32-39.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa.
33.32-39.9.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer ns1.home.office.net.
What could be the cause of problem? I might miss a transition somewhere
between the office parent zone and the home child zone. But i just don't
know. Everything else seems to work fine (the sub-domain forward zones are
ok).
I've been following the book of O'Reilly "DNS & BIND", 5th edition, which
is a great book i found; but the part on the reverse sub-domain is a bit
too tricky for me.
Could someone please help me out?
Here is the scenario:
Office Network:
===============
Domain: office.net (not real, used as example here only)
IP subnet : 192.168.9.0/24 (not real, used as example here only)
DNS Server: ns1.office.net (IP:192.168.9.1)
Home Network:
==============
Domain: home.office.net
IP Subnet : 192.168.9.32/28
DNS Server: ns1.home.office.net (IP:192.168.9.33)
On both of the DNS servers, i'm running BIND on Fedora 9.
The configuration files on the Office server (ns1.office.net) looks as below:
1. /etc/resolv.conf
=== Beginning of file ===
search office.net
nameserver 192.168.9.1
nameserver 192.168.9.2

2. /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
(I'm using bind-chroot here with ROOTDIR=/var/named/chroot set in

Thanks in advance for any ideas?
