domain name system - bind and dns master and slave



After going through OReilly dns and bind book, I still have problems with a master and slave configuration, I am getting



client 192.168.1.67#34245: update '.co.uk/IN' denied
as a syslog error for the master definintion of the zone.
and
named[19034]: client 192.168.1.67#47452: update forwarding '.co.uk/IN' denied
as a syslog error for the slave definition



The server that has the master zones has a named.conf :




options {
allow-transfer { 192.168.1/24; };
}
// The reverse lookup of 192.168.1.* - the local IP addresses
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "192.168.1.db";
allow-transfer { key TRANSFER; };
allow-update { key TRANSER; };
};


// The forward lookup of hosts on this domain
zone ".co.uk" in {
type master;
file ".co.uk.db";
allow-transfer { key TRANSFER; };
allow-update { key TRANSER; };
};

key "TRANSFER" {

algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "";
};

# Slave DNS server
server 192.167.1.67 {
keys {
TRANSFER;
};
};



The server that has the slave zones has :



options {
allow-transfer { none; };
}

// The reverse lookup of 192.168.1.* - the local IP addresses
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in {

type slave;
file "bak.192.168.1.db";
masters { 192.168.1.52 key TRANSFER; };
allow-update-forwarding { any; };
};

// The forward lookup of hosts on this domain
zone "blairsltd.co.uk" in {
type slave;
file "bak.blairsltd.co.uk.db";

masters { 192.168.1.52 key TRANSFER; };
};

key "TRANSFER" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "";
};

# Master DNS server
server 192.167.1.52 {

keys {
TRANSFER;
};
};


I think eveything is configured so it will allow all legitimate updates securely from the slave to the master, what am I missing?


Answer



allow-update-forwarding { any; }; is only on the slave's reverse lookup zone, so it's gonna block attempts to update the forward lookup zone on it - that's the error message on the slave.




The master is configured to require updates to be signed with the transfer key - based on its error message, that's probably not happening since the intent seems to have been to use that key for transfers, correct?

linux - iDRAC6 Virtual Media native library cannot be loaded

When attempting to mount Virtual Media on a iDRAC6 IP KVM session I get the following error: I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and: $ javaws -version Java(TM) Web Start 1.6.0_16 $ uname -a Linux aud22419-linux 2.6.28-15-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 31 13:39:06 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ firefox -version Mozilla Firefox 3.0.14, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2009 mozilla.org On Windows + IE it (unsurprisingly) works. I've just gotten off the phone with the Dell tech support and I was told it is known to work on Linux + Firefox, albeit Ubuntu is not supported (by Dell, that is). Has anyone out there managed to mount virtual media in the same scenario?

hp proliant - Smart Array P822 with HBA Mode?

We get an HP DL360 G8 with an Smart Array P822 controller. On that controller will come a HP StorageWorks D2700 . Does anybody know, that it is possible to run the Smart Array P822 in HBA mode? I found only information about the P410i, who can run HBA. If this is not supported, what you think about the LSI 9207-8e controller? Will this fit good in that setup? The Hardware we get is used but all original from HP. The StorageWorks has 25 x 900 GB SAS 10K disks. Because the disks are not new I would like to use only 22 for raid6, and the rest for spare (I need to see if the disk count is optimal or not for zfs). It would be nice if I'm not stick to SAS in future. As OS I would like to install debian stretch with zfs 0.71 as file system and software raid. I have see that hp has an page for debian to. I would like to use hba mode because it is recommend, that zfs know at most as possible about the disk, and I'm independent from the raid controller. For us zfs have many benefits,

apache 2.2 - Server Potentially Compromised -- c99madshell

So, low and behold, a legacy site we've been hosting for a client had a version of FCKEditor that allowed someone to upload the dreaded c99madshell exploit onto our web host. I'm not a big security buff -- frankly I'm just a dev currently responsible for S/A duties due to a loss of personnel. Accordingly, I'd love any help you server-faulters could provide in assessing the damage from the exploit. To give you a bit of information: The file was uploaded into a directory within the webroot, "/_img/fck_uploads/File/". The Apache user and group are restricted such that they can't log in and don't have permissions outside of the directory from which we serve sites. All the files had 770 permissions (user rwx, group rwx, other none) -- something I wanted to fix but was told to hold off on as it wasn't "high priority" (hopefully this changes that). So it seems the hackers could've easily executed the script. Now I wasn't able
