[cobalt-users] How to get a Cobalt machine using the GUI to do RFC2317 reverse DNS delegation.

[Christopher Jay Manders <Chris.Manders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We need to delegate a /25 (using CIDR) netblock to a client and are
having difficulty getting the interface/GUI of the Cobalt to actually do
this. I cannot find any instructions or other advice as to how to
acheive this. We have noticed that by using vi we can edit the files as
would normally be used on a standard DNS server running BIND from
www.isc.org, but we note that the database maintained by the Cobalt does
not recognize the syntax and actually deletes our entries made by hand.
We have tried several things, including the .include file thing, but to
little effect. Any pointers, advice or other questions welcomed to help
arrive at our goal of delegating the /25 block's reverse DNS maps to
them.

Thanks!


Chris
