There are 2 typos (well two digits transposed) in the sample reverse DNS zone example given above. Here's the text provided:

zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/0.162.198.in-addr.arpa.zone";
};

The file directive has the 2 and the 8 transposed. The file name should be "/var/named/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa.zone"

Hello again,

I would like to inform that all questions mentioned above I solved. I just created require zone-files in /etc/bind/.

Unfortunately I met another issue and I tried to handled with that all the day – without result. When I try to check the answer with host command I received always the same error: “Host ….. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)“.

The zone files and option files are done correctly without any errors.

Could someone help me with that and point me where I should looking for a mistake..? Many thanks in advance.

Radek.

Hello Mr Canepa,

First of all I would like to thank you for a very good articles in order to help me to prepare for LFCS. I studied all of them very carefully, but unfortunately I was stuck at the DNS.

It is about 3th part of this chapter. I don’t know if files /var/named/sales.me.com.zone and /var/named/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa.zone should be appeared automatically or should I append them on my own?

There are differences between CentOS and Ubuntu because of location of these files – in Ubuntu these files supposed to be in /var/cache/bind…
I will be thankful for your support.
