I need to forward/delegate IN-ADDR.ARPA reverse name service. I have
O'Rielys book on DNS and BIND, but the delegation examples there show how
to delegate a class C net from a class B net. We have a CIDR block of
eight class c network addresses. Sprint has delegated the IN-ADDR.APRA
service to my primary and secondary name servers. When I re-assigned the
class c address to one of my clients, I asked Sprint to change the
IN-ADDR.ARPA mapping to point the my clients nameserver, and they told me
that I need to forward/delegate it to them myself. Anybody, know how to
do this?
It looked like I might be able to use the forwarder directive in the
named.boot, but I am having trouble understanding how it works.
I looked for a more generic newsgroup to post to, but all the
networking groups appear to be OS specific. Any suggestions on other
newsgroups to post to for help?
