New DNS zone

ANDREA_6 — Fri, 03 Mar 2006 11:00:07 GMT

Hello,
i have a dns (on hpux11) which have autority on my domain (for example one.domain.it).

I'd like to create a new resolution area
two.one.domain.it

can i use hosts_to_named with this syntax to create a new area?:

hosts_to_named -d two.one.domain.it -n

Does this command update itself my named.conf file?

Are there any other configurations to change to make active my new resolution area?

Best regards,Andrea.

Ciao Andrea,

I suggest you to follow this link:

http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90147/ch03s06.html

"Configuring a Secondary Master Name Server"

Here you will see how to create the secondary DNS by hosts_to_named and how to create the secondary DNS manually.

HTH.

Best regards,
Fabio

I have to create the secondary zone on the same server..

I only want my dns server to resolv one.domain.it and two.one.domain.it.

Hello,
i read the document, but maybe it is not what i need.

I want to create a subdomain in my dns without delegate the management.
I only want to create a new sub-area
two.one.domain.it

Do i need to change manually my named.conf?
Can i use the hosts_to_named command to do that?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thank's,Andrea.

No you dont need to change the named.conf file to add a sub-domain.
What you need to do is create a $ORIGIN two.one.domain.it. entry with the records in it in the zonefile.
