dhcpd 3.0pl1-23 error
Posted by Balwinder Singh Dheeman on March 7th, 2004


Dear Friends,

On my RH 9.0 machine I configured dhcpd from an rpm dhcp-3.0pl1-23, and
named from an rpm bind-9.2.1-16; though the dhcpd and named are working
fine, but the named is unable to update entries dynamically. I found an
error in my system log file:

--------------------- dhcpd log Begin ------------------------

---------------------- dhcpd log End -------------------------

Shouldn't DRISHMT.sebs.org.in be sent as sebs.org.in and the
66.135.152.203.in-addr.arpa. as 135.152.203.in-addr.arpa by dhcpd to named?

If yes, what do I change and, or add in my /etc/dhcpd.conf file?
What's wrong in /etc/dhcpd.conf file? listing of which follows:

-------------------- dhcpd.conf Begin -----------------------

ddns-update-style interim;

}

## clients with fixed address's
host cto { hardware ethernet 00:08:74:48:23:BB; fixed-address

}

--------------------- dhcpd.conf End ------------------------

Please help me to short problem this out at your earliest.

I'm sorry for the typos, the above should be read as:

Shouldn't DRISHMT.sebs.org.in be sent as 'sebs.org.in.zone' and the
66.135.152.203.in-addr.arpa. as '135.152.203.in-addr.arpa.zone' by dhcpd
to named?
