Questions tagged as ['internal-dns']
I searched through serverfault but couldn't find an answer to this. Maybe I just don't know the right keyword or it's a conceptual misunderstanding. Any help would be appreciated!
The situation:
- My local services are running behind an NGINX reverse proxy
- I use a LAN DNS on the router (Draytek) to resolve local requests to *.example.com directly to my local server (192.168.1.2).
Even if there is no inte ...
I'm using Unbound DNS server as a resolver for my home LAN. It runs as a Docker container on the default bridge network and in general it works as I'd expect it to, except when trying to use it as a resolver for the other Docker containers hosted on the same machine.
I tried setting the nameserver in the containers' /etc/resolv.conf
to the Docker host's LAN address, but this is clearly not the ri ...

I am working on a case study related to risks from insecure dynamic DNS updates. Suppose there is an internal DNS configured that has a mix of static and dynamically created addresses. Consider a Windows AD integrated DNS environment.
I need some help on few of the queries below
- Can there coexist a static and a dynamically created A record for the same host - referring to different IP addresses on the ...

I have configured Host overrides in pfSense and other browsers like Chrome and Edge work fine but Firefox simply does not resolve giving "Unable to connect" error.
This is the same on my laptop with fresh install of Firefox with default settings. DNS over HTTPS is disabled by default so that's not it.
Why is Firefox not working with Split DNS? I would like to continue using Firefox but if there is n ...
I currently run an organization and we use a internal website that is hosted within our network that runs a Gitea Server so that we are able to access important documents without having to rely on a third-party service.
I have already setup a DNS server using MaraDNS that routes to the proper IP address. We also run additional applications on this server (such as an internal REST API) but have been cur ...

Primary network IP addresses ppp.ppp.ppp.0-255. Primary has its own name resolution. Manufacturing network IP addresses xxx.xxx.xxx.0-255. I have a block of IP addresses with which to work with on my Manufacturing network xxx.xxx.xxx.0 - 255. I am not the primary network admin here. For some reason unknown to me the standard network cannot handle (or won't be set up) DNS for local name lookup for client ...

I have a AWS ELB to the gateway of an internal service.
I have some other host names that I need to be resolved to the same address as the ELB DNS name.
In my current set up, I'm using /etc/hosts
to manually point the names to the IP address of the ELB.
But the IP of the ELB changes once in a while and I'll have to update /etc/hosts
again and again.
Is it possible to just tell my operating system to ...

My setup is as follows. I have an ISP provider configured on my router and a vpn client connected. In the vpn's network there is a local dns server that has some of our internal records. My computer is connected to the router and I'm in its local network. I'm able to ping
by IP address, but hen I try to ping

I've deployed BGInfo from SysInternals to all of our servers, both physical and virtual. However, a few of our servers have multiple hostnames to support "backward compatibility" with some of our legacy software systems after a server was replaced or its functions were merged with another server. In some cases, this may include several "alternate" hostnames that go back several years.
EXAMPLE:
Alterna ...
I am having an issue where NFS is refusing to allow hosts that are specified in the config file to mount the share.

I have a set of several offices joined using various combinations of IPsec VPNs and an MPLS network. The majority of sites form a mesh arrangement using the VPNs, but site B only has a single IPsec VPN to site A - site B cannot reach any of the other sites (sites C, and D).
Sites A, C, and D all share an Active Directory domain, say "companya.com". Domain controllers for companya.com are located ...
I am setting up an email server, nextcloud files server and DNS server on a machine running Ubuntu 20.04. I've used iRedmail for email and it seems to be working correctly. I need to setup the DNS service so that machines on the same network can access correctly the server.
For the DNS configuration I am using BIND9. Below is my named.conf.options

I recently started a new job and inherited an antique in an SBS2011 server (yes, I know all the security risks and have raised this at EVERY management meeting). I have an issue with the DNS not resolving forward lookup zones.
The domain hosting emails use split DNS; the SBS should resolve this to the internal IP address, but not from any clients. The strange part is that from the SBS itself, the ...
I faced an issue trying to setup PowerDNS for my local network. I have a domain example.com managed by Cloudflare.
For instance I have A record on Cloudflare like server.example.com
pointing to 1.1.1.1
but my local clients should resolve server.example.com
to 10.10.10.1
and it's not a problem by using forward-zones="example.com=127.0.0.1:54";
in recursor config, but I have another record like mail.example ...

To do any ops work on our servers, we first need to ssh into a DMZ server with a public IP, before ssh-ing on to the app servers, with ips such as 172.16.3.239. I would rather have memorable hostnames, to do something like ssh app.staging
, but I am unsure how this works on AWS. I have only setup DNS for globally accessible ips with my registrar, and since the AWS private subnet is for a private range ...
I have a problem with a web server (WS) (apache on ubuntu 20.04 server), Fortinet Firewall (FF) and windows Active Directory (AD). My ISP recently upgraded my Internet connection and changed some configuration (static IP addresses and subnet). Before the upgrade, there was no problem. In particular, the AD was behind FF while the WS was external to it (machines from local networks and from external netw ...

Agaoin, this is on Windows 10. I'm bringing in a new Ubuntu test web server (hpmicro1.lovelady.com) to our internal network, which is all in the lovelady.com domain. There's a DNS server on another machine that handles all DNS lookups.
PC configuration for DNS is:
When I ping the web server by name, I get 192.168.1.5:

We have, as is common, two DNS infrastructures, one for internal resolution and another, non-forwarding, authoritative server for our public domains.
This question is about the comparative merits of two different approaches for our internal hosts to access our public services:
- Some services have been set up so that internal hosts are given an internal address for the service (ie. a direct route to the s ...
Is it possible to set multiple search domains via dnsmasq/DHCP? Due to some migration, I need multiple clients to be able to:
ping server.old-domain
ping server.new-domain
# both should work, .old-domain being an alias for .new-domain
I have tried the following:
dhcp-option=option:domain-search
- only works for dhcpcd, which I cannot solely rely on- same link also suggests
