Hi Scott, To me it seems as if you are getting a few things mixed up here and as a result are lost on what to do next. Let me try to explain. You have registered your domain name. In order for the hosts on that domain (including www.*) to properly resolve DNS is needed. For your domain name, the listed name servers are: NS1.EVERYDNS.NET NS2.EVERYDNS.NET NS3.EVERYDNS.NET NS4.EVERYDNS.NET In those nameservers records for pilotalk.com and www.pilotalk.com have to be present in order for your domain to resolve. Most probably you can add these records using the web interface at www.everydns.net. Note that for all of this you won't need to run a nameserver on your own computer or router. One thing that you will need (or which would be very useful at least) is a static IP address at home. This way you won't have to change your DNS records each time you connect to the internet. Once DNS is properly set up with the nameservers above, all connection attempts to www.pilotalk.com should end up at your IP address (67.54.156.70 ?). As you are using a router, you'll probably have to configure port forwarding on that router to pass through all traffic for port 80 on your public IP address to port 80 of your computer's IP address on your internal network. Please refer to the manual of your router to learn how to do this. I hope this helps to clarify.

In other words. Does someone here has the condition to setup > a service like that ? Hi Daniel, Apologies for the late reply. I have given thought to doing something exactly as you describe in the past and it's an idea which I still haven't discarded completely. While I feel I do have the resources (connection and hardware wise) to offer such a service, there still are a few reasons, valid or not, which in my opinion makes it hard or not worthwhile to offer such a service using maradns: - As such a service would become more popular, you can expect changes to be made to the various zones continiously. As far as I know, you can't load (just) the changed zones without restarting mara; - You propose to use such a service as secondary DNS host. Assuming that the primary host will use a different flavoured nameserver, it would be better if mara could deal with NOTIFY request when the zone information on the primary host changes. These are the two main show stoppers I could think of, though there might be more. That said, perhaps the best motivation against doing this using MaraDNS is that this tool selection is only of interest to you, me, Sam, and some others on this list. The vast majority of end users probably couldn't care one bit what software is serving their DNS records as long as the servers providing this service are stable and efficient. Once or if the show stoppers above get addressed then I surely would be interested in such a project, but till such a time I question the feasability of such a project.

I'm wondering if Maradns is capable of allow transfer of zones from external dns servers with different ACL for different zones. I found the "zone_transfer_acl" mararc variable, but this affects all the zones equally, right? Can I use this variable inside a zone file?

My maradns server will be the master and the external are secondaries.

First of all, since my day job is an ESL teacher for native Spanish speakers, I hope you don't mind my pointing out it's "of allowing" since one uses the gerund when the verb is the object of a preposition. Second of all, I don't know what happened, but this email went in to the spam folder of my Gmail account. I don't think there is an army of Chileans who are selling (or need, for that matter) penis enlargement pills. OK, so on to the question. MaraDNS, alas, doesn't have this feature. This is a nice feature to have; I wish I had thought of it before the 1.3 feature freeze I declared on June 21st. Basically, I have declared a feature freeze on June 21st, so I will not be making any changes to the MaraDNS codebase except documentation improvments, adding SQA tests, and bug fixes. Hopefully, I will remember this feature request once 1.3.07 stabilizes and I start adding features again. You know, I have always wanted to go to Chile. Unfortunately, my girlfriend isn't too keen (eager) on going there. It might have something to do with my ex being half-Chilean. - Sam From hsalgado at vulcano.cl Fri Jul 13 22:01:14 2007 From: hsalgado at vulcano.cl (Hugo Salgado H.)

Don't worry... we only sell what others need, that's how this thing works, don't you think? ;) > > OK, so on to the question.

That's the only feature that keeps me switching from bind to maradns in my primary zones :( > You know, I have always wanted to go to Chile.

Your girlfriend is wise... chilean women are a big temptation! ;) But you'll find nice and welcoming people, and at least this grateful maradns user to invite you "chicha y pipe?o"!
