PiqueABoo Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 When/if you sort out your network numbering, create a "Reverse lookup zone" for the network addresses in DNS.
darkstar Posted April 4, 2006 Author Posted April 4, 2006 Hi guys OK - we managed to get a 'real' IP scheme given to us by Kingston. 10.100.0.0 I did the change over yesterday and did as you suggested and created a reverse lookup. All is well with the exception of IIS which appears to have lost its virtual directories and will not not work. Unfortunately this server seems to have corrupt event logs - not the most useful thing when trying to diagnose problems. I guess I'll have to try the Microsoft fixes to try and get the events back up. I was wondering if anyone had heard of problems with IIS after IP changes. I did find one obscure post somewhere but that was NT4. I wonder if I should contact the admin at CMU, after all, we did seem to be a part of the university campus at one point LOL ;-)
john Posted April 4, 2006 Posted April 4, 2006 Sorry to hijack, but whos a good DNS expert whos brain I can pick in a few days time, I am setting a new server up and I always seem to make a mess of DNS, or it works well but seems to after a few weeks get the hickley pups. I just want to run past them the way I am doing it and if its right or not
