Thanks all!
I found what the problem is. I need to make a key (redhat FC 4 already
provided one, /etc/rndc.key
and in /etc/dhcpd.conf:
server-identifier ns.veda.int;
authoritative;
ddns-update-style interim;
ddns-updates on;
include "/etc/rndc.key";
zone localdomain {
primary 192.168.1.2;
key rndckey;
}
zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 192.168.1.2;
key rndckey;
}
So dhcpd will use the key to update dns.
in named.conf, use the named config applet, add the key to control and
localdomain.
Also need to disable SELinux, that sucker is preventing bind to update
master domain.
remember to keep watching /var/log/message to debug out any typo (also make
sure /var/named is owned by named).
Now I can ping my windows pcs as name.localdomain
Still can't ping them just as 'name', crap.... When I was using dsl the
router is acting as a dns name server, and it did a better job than bind :-(
I know I must have done something not right. It is usually some config
problem. Once got time I will check the source code, that usually helps
lol.
Thanks again.
