Search Again: problem with qdns and secondary ip address From: Matthias Gruber Date: Thursday, June 8, 2000 Time: 2:37:31 am hello, a few weeks ago i reported a problem with qdns concerning different results when testing domains with different clients. dns expert and nslookup gave good results while dig runs into a timeout. the german registration authorities use dig for domain registry automation so we have trouble to connect new domains with qdns servers involved (and have to use our linux dns until today;-) it has turned out now, that whenever a secondary ip address, or more than one, are in use on the qdns servers some clients especially dig will fail. this happens even when the qdns server is bound to the primary ip address (as enterd in the tcp/ip control panel). if there is only the primary address, qdns connectivity worked. other software like the ASIP services (mail, ftp) are working on the secondary address, so i dont think its an open transport problem. i havent used a protocol analyzer yet, but i think the problem could be simply reproduced at any qdns site. the problem is quite important as we are trying not to change ip-addresses of public services and today it is possible to run more services on the same computer (in this case ASIP mail and qdns) another issue: is there a place for standard apple scripts useful with qdns, like creating domains from a list or changing domains, or similar things. it would be nice if menandmice could provide a few scripts on their website and helpful for applescript newbies (like me;-) -- bye, Matthias Gruber --------------------------------------------------------------- (Networking, Technical Support) WOLNET Tanja Grubba und Matthias Gruber GBR Hinterstrasse 21 Tel. 0271 2361830 D-57072 Siegen Fax. 0271 3331184 email: mailto:matthias.gruber@wolnet.de internet: http://www.wolnet.de/
