Using Wildcards in Subdomain Records
Hello allI have a main domain (aa.example.com) that have hundereds of sub-domain ( bb.aa.example.com). I am setting a wildcard in the record file for the main domain so it forwards all subdomains to a number of addresses in a round-roben fashion( the record as follows "* IN A 192.168.1.x ) the issue I am facing is the wildcard forwards any subdomain regardless wether it is a true subdomain ( bb.aa.example.com ) or it is not a true subdomain ( xx.bb.aa.example.com ) QQQSent from my Galaxy<>-- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.

Issue Using Wildcards for Subdimain Redirecing
Hello allI have a main domain ( aa.example.com) with hunderds of subdomains ( bb.aa.example.com). I made a wildcard record to forward all subdomains (bb.) to a list of addresses in round-robin fashion. The problem I am fscing is the wildcard is forwarding anything towards the the IP ( example , "cc.bb." which is not a vaild subdomain). How can I limit that so it will only forwards ( bb.aa.example.com) and drops any invalid subdomains ( cc.bb.aa.example.com ).Note: aa, bb, and cc being any arbitary value.Regards Muhanad Abdullah Sent from my Galaxy-- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.

RE: bind-users Digest, Vol 3907, Issue 3
Ok , this is one issue solved ; I have another issue. The main domain from previous ( example.com ) needs to be forwarded to the internet and resolved normally, and with current configuration when I do nslookup from inside the NDS server it resolves normally , the problem is with client machines when they use my DNS the main domain ( example .com, aa.example.com) don't reply back and the nslookup shows no results.

Re: Is there a community product maintaining Windows support?
Fortunately (or unfortunately), the existing port of the 9.16.x bind code to Windows is built with Microsoft tools (MSVC2019) and contains its own handling of differences between Windows and Unix. If a maintainer stepped up to maintain the source for a port, I could compile it locally for our own systems, as I happen to also be a software developer using bind to support that activity. I know that there is a project that builds a 3rd party installer for the Windows port (I currently use the simple upstream install utility that is included in the ISC binary download), and I was hoping that maybe someone from that installer project could extend it to also maintain the port itself.

Re: Is there a community product maintaining Windows support?
As the original developer of the Windows version of bind9, I can tell you that ISC has removed support for the WIndows version from their newer versions of the code and there are other changes that would need a lot of work to catch back up. Since BIND9 is under continuous development you'd be in a constant race to keep up. It's not worth the effort. I have recommended that you use the docker image version of BIND9 and run that on your Windows box.

Re: Windows 9.16.25 fails to start (1067 Terminated unexpectedly)
I can short-cut that a little! :) A 1067 error is always the Windows named service failing to start. The reasons behind it are much harder to figure out.

Re: Is there a community product maintaining Windows support?
This is truly tragic, and quite counterproductive action by ISC. Messing about with docker virtualization inside an already virtual machine seems like a recipe for disaster. And given the way you suggest it, I suspect you mean running a Linux binary under the WSL layer which is not available in any Nadela-free version of Windows. So I guess I will have to port the other software on the machine to Linux a little earlier than previously planned.

The time spent on Windows build doesn’t come free, and after several calls nobody stepped up neither with offer to do the work or pay for the work. Open source and free software doesn’t mean that the open source maintainers have to work for free, only that you can use the results for without paying royalties. This is a huge difference. ISC would not drop the Windows support if it would mean we could make BIND 9 better. But it’s the exact opposite - we can make BIND 9 better for most people because we have dropped the Windows support and don’t have to worry about the compatibility layers and weird quirks of the Windows SDK. Also we are not actively rejecting the idea of having Windows port - and I think I pretty much explained the conditions the ISC would accept the Windows port in the previous emails.

BTW: docker is *not* virtualization and i would *always* install any containers inside virtual machines because on production hardware the only thing which belongs to bare-metal is the hypversior (yes, there are *very few* expections, contgainers are non of them) To me, containers are a simplified virtualization technology that shares the kernel and kernel state, virtualizing only the user space. That it is marketed with contrary words means nothing. why? because there is redundancy, hot migration, backup-infrastructure and so on - the only usecase for containers is lightweight isolation for the few cases a systemd-unit with proper namespaces and cgroups isn't enough So back to Linux-exclusive concepts, indicating this is all about using the Linux build with a Linux-on-windows layer, Hence my preference to reverse the order and go for a pure (and cheaper) Linux VM.

Re: Issue Using Wildcards for Subdimain Redirecing
You can’t do that with standard DNS software. It would be possible to write custom software that would do exactly this. It’s possible that dnsdist proxy might be able to do this kind of matching. Also using “example.com” and being vague doesn’t help people that might want to help you. Perhaps if you start using real domain and describing what you need to achieve instead of how you want to do that would be a good start. Step back and describe why are you doing things like this.

Re: freebsd ipfw question
Only you can know what is “normal" for your configuration. Having more that 1 TCP connection from a source at a time is not abnormal. There is no requirement to use existing TCP connections for other queries. > On 18 Feb 2022, at 08:45, Randy Bush wrote: > > for some reason lost in time, i have the following in `/etc/ipfw.rules` > on a freebsd system running bind9 > >add allow tcp from any to me 53 limit src-addr 1 setup >add deny tcp from any to me 53 > > the results are > >01000 48358531 6390772849 allow tcp from any to me 53 setup limit > src-addr 1 :default >01100165225 9379997 deny tcp from any to me 53 > > is this about normal? > > randy > -- > Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from > this list > > ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions. > Contact us at https://www.isc.org/contact/ for more information. > > > bind-users mailing list > bind-users@lists.isc.org > https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: ma...@isc.org -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
