Just off the cuff, I believe that you do not want the period at the far right of your IP address. Change:
1.0.168.192.
To:
1.0.168.192
On other OS's the . is mandatory or it fails. With out the . the is added to the base. Which would be 1.0.158.192.168.192. instead of 1.0.158.192. I tried it non the less and it still fails with the exact same message. I found that if I use 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa 1 IN PTR ip1921680001.local.x.com. 2 IN PTR ip1921680002.local.x.com. .. 254 IN PTR ip192168000254.local.x.com. Did work but then I have 256 files to do. I realy want to stay consistent across all platforms. 168.192.in-addr.arpa 0.1 IN PTR ip1921680001.local.x.com. 0.2 IN PTR ip1921680002.local.x.com. .. 255.254 IN PTR ip192168000254.local.x.com. Does not work. Same error.
Additionally, I think that you can safely remove some of the address. As everything is going to be between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.255.254, I believe that you can get away with 1.0 then 2.0 then 3.0 and so on. I think that the reason that 192.168.0.1 is "out-of-zone" is that period on the right. I am no DNS wizard, but I am familiar enough to be dangerous. Hopefully someone will correct me if I am wrong. You could test with a much smaller file.
I am only going between them. Ihis driving me crazy. -- Boyd Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com> ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-networking+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-networking+help@opensuse.org
