Search Again: formatting import From: Paul Didzerekis Date: Monday, May 12, 2003 Time: 11:21:49 am I am setting up an RBL server for our internal use and I need to massage our blacklist from our primary mail server to a format that can be imported into QDNS 3.5. I am pretty sure I have the format correct for importing except I have one question. Our mail server could handle IP ranges. I am wondering if I will need to breakout the ranges of IPs into individual IPs or if QDNS will answer requests correctly if I leave them as ranges. Here is what I am wanting to do. $TTL 86400 @ 86400 IN SOA ns1.3-rivers.com. hostmaster.3-rivers.com. 2003050901 28800 7200 604800 86400 @ IN NS ns1.3-rivers.com. ;DNS1 @ IN NS ns2.3-rivers.com. ;DNS2 4.40.36.0-4.40.36.255 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.13.100.71 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.14.24.75 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.16.4.40 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.26.20.243 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.27.200.180 IN A 127.0.0.2 .....etc Or do I need to break out that first IP range into individual IPs like this? $TTL 86400 @ 86400 IN SOA ns1.3-rivers.com. hostmaster.3-rivers.com. 2003050901 28800 7200 604800 86400 @ IN NS ns1.3-rivers.com. ;DNS1 @ IN NS ns2.3-rivers.com. ;DNS2 4.40.36.0-4.40.36.255 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.1 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.2 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.3 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.4 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.5 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.6 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.7 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.8 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.9 IN A 127.0.0.2 4.40.36.10 IN A 127.0.0.2 ......etc 12.13.100.71 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.14.24.75 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.16.4.40 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.26.20.243 IN A 127.0.0.2 12.27.200.180 IN A 127.0.0.2 Thanks in Advance, -- Paul Didzerekis Owner, Three Rivers Internet http://www.3-rivers.com or http://www.threeriversinternet.com Professional website hosting, authoring, & consulting.
