Hi guys, First of all, I want to excuse me for post this message here, I know it's quite off topic, but I also know that here we have a lot of guys wanting to help. Well, I'm trying to configure BIND at my office network and I did created a fake domain just to learn how to configure BIND. I did setup named.conf (actualy I did installed BIND chrooted version) and also my zone files, so the configuration is like the follow:
$TTL 1W @ IN SOA ns.hvip. myers.hvip. ( 200505022100 28800 14400 604800 86400 ) hvip. IN A 192.168.7.99 @ IN NS ns.hvip. @ IN MX 10 mail.hvip. myers.hvip. IN A 192.168.7.99 ns.hvip. IN CNAME myers. mail IN CNAME myers. Well, if I try to test dns at nslookup console I can tell all the hosts listed above and get all the properties about his even if it's a canonical name. When I try to ping the same hosts I can't get they all to work and actually only myers.hvip reply me, the others hosts are replyed as unkown host. What am I doing wrong? I tryed a lot of combinations how you can see in lines about ns and mail CNAME, but the canonical names never reply my ping request. Could some one give me some tip about it?
