Re: [cobalt-users] Dynamic DNS Server



Can you tell me what the Office Tracker server is running on ie. Windows 98/200/nt or XP and what the processor is and if the machine is a true server or a client machine that has the Office Tracker software installed on it?

If it is a server type machine what other software is installed on the machine with the Office Tracker server.

I know of nothing turnkey for the RaQ... for some of the general
issues surrounding this, a Google search for

        bind "dynamic dns" update arm

will help.

For the specifics, you'll need to hack the RaQ config a bit:

        /usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/dns/index.cgi
        /etc/named/pri.zone.tld.include
        /etc/named/records

The first file is what generates named.conf on restart.  I hack
this up to implement general named.conf changes.

The second "file" is an example... if you create a file whose
name is identical to a zonefile, save for ".include" appended, it
will be included in the appropriate zonefile.

Finally, the third file is what holds the "normal" DNS records.
The CGI script uses it to build named.conf.

I realize this is far from cookbook, but hopefully it's enough of
a start... by tinkering with the Cobalt-specific stuff, you
should be able to implement a standard BIND config.
