We have a local owncloud server and if we set up the clients to use the IP everything works fast. If we setup the domain (a DYDNS subdomain, prsc.noip.me) is VERY slow. A bit of research indicated this is because using prsc.noip.me the traffic goes onto the internet and back. More research indicated the way to get around this was to use a local DNS and use it to resolve the prsc.noip.me to the local IP, rather than the DyDNS service IP.
So I setup a bind9 server and got everything working (including reverse dns). Bit more research indicated I should setup a zone for the subdomain but cant get this working. So what I have is
named.conf.local
zone "prsc.localhost" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.prsc.localhost";
};
zone "prsc.noip.me" {
type master;
file "/ect/bind/db.prsc.noip.me";
};
zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
notify no;
file "/etc/bind/db.192";
};
db.prsc.localhost
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA pluto.prsc.localhost. pi.localhost. (
2 ; Serial
604800 ; Refresh
86400 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800 ) ; Negative Cache TTL
;
@ IN NS pluto.prsc.localhost.
@ IN A 127.0.0.1
@ IN AAAA ::1
; Beow are the A record addresses
router IN A 192.168.0.1
pluto IN A 192.168.0.5
; Below are the CNAME record addresses (aliuses) - point ot the A records
server01 IN CNAME pluto.prsc.localhost
router01 IN CNAME router.prsc.localhost.
db.prsc.noip.me
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA pluto.prsc.localhost. pi.localhost. (
2 ; Serial
604800 ; Refresh
86400 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800 ) ; Negative Cache TTL
;
@ IN NS pluto.prsc.localhost.
@ IN A 127.0.0.1
@ IN AAAA ::1
; Beow are the A record addresses
prsc IN A 192.168.0.50
; Below are the CNAME record addresses (aliuses) - point ot the A records
server01 IN CNAME prsc.noip.me.
I also have a zone for reverse DNS on the prsc.localhost. When I start bind I get no errors in syslog. I can ping pluto, router and google.com so things seem to be working but ping prsc.noip.com returns an unknown host error.
so what am I doing wrong?
