Clients do not have anything defined in /etc/netsvc.conf. It did not make a diff in our scenario. When I do nslookup on a client like lab01.this.that it resolves correctly and I get the right IP.
When I type dig -x 10.0.0.54 ptr it correctly returns the name of client: lab01.this.that. So reverse lookups are also good. Yet the named.log file contains entries like these:
for the loopback device. Why is it still trying to go to abc.this.that on the loopback device?
Sorry I CAN'T get too detailed in exact names so lab01 and abc.this.that are host and domain name place holders for real ones.
I just noticed and see a bunch of messages like this:
Code:
query (cache) 'lab01.abc.this.that/A/IN' approved
so looks like it's 'caching' somewhere but not sure where since rndc is off.
The point is that it is keeping the old FQDN abc.this.that when I already changed it to this.that earlier (removing the abc).
It's ok if it's not enough information to let you guy's suggest anything then we'll just plug away at it on this end. No worries.
Thanks,

Maybe I could ask the reverse scenario. If I changed an old domainname from abc.this.that to this.that, and it still somehow kept showing abc.this.that for the loopback device within the /var/log/named/named.log file, where could I go to look to change that?

When running rndc dumpdb -all then trying to use strings <dump file> it showed nothing cached for abc.this.that at all.

Reason: Add CODE and ICODE tags.
I have a need to create a connection between an erlang node and my C program.
the name of an erlang node looks something like monitor@host1.ipc.co.za.
The piece of code I have to construct a node name looks like this:
char *hostname, *domainname, *nodename = "monitor", *thisfullnodename;

Obviously, this isn't working. I... (10 Replies)
