Hello again,
I have a another question about nethserver.
I have activated DHCP and DNS Server on my nethserver but something is not working as expected.
If a client gets an ip-address and is registered at dhcp, no DNS record is created.
Clients will be registered with names like host-cdfc564d instead of there real hostnames.
My main problem is my linux fat client is not resolved properly. Android and iphone are resolved fine but linux client won’t. Also a ping on ping host-be72b1a3 results in ping: unknown host host-be72b1a3
I did an tcpdump as you can see NXDomain is replied.
23:21:55.977521 IP 192.168.10.37.37325 > 192.168.10.250.domain: 1211+ PTR? 37.10.168.192.in-addr.arpa. (44)
23:21:55.978782 IP 192.168.10.250.domain > 192.168.10.37.37325: 1211 NXDomain* 0/1/0 (106)
before patch we specify only IP - MAC based DHCP, patch gave you opportunity to specify appropriate name which would be resolved by all your NS clients
That works also if you use the reservation option. I tested it without your patch.
My client can now resolve all names which I have used for reservation, even for these clients which send no hostname.
