smeserver-dhcp-dns : need testers

<< < (3/4) > >>

stephdl:
It could be good to test it on a server with a lot of dhcp clients since when the dhcpd lease is over the entry must be removed or added for new client.

you can compare /var/service/tinydns/root/data and /var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases

Of course the dns entry is valid for the whole period during the ip address is given so if the client is stopped you can have unreachable answers.

I will ask to a friend with a server in a french school to test it

you should use


--- Code: ---host HostName
--- End code ---
instead of

--- Code: ---dig any HostName
--- End code ---

Ok I'm testing it on a subnet 192.168.148.0/22 -> 1024 IP

stephdl:
new version to test, following the work of bug 2388, now it is a contrib and you are welcome to test it , please

see http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/Sme-Server/smeserver-dhcp-dns/ and http://wiki.contribs.org/Dhcp-dns

for sme8

--- Code: ---yum install http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/Sme-Server/smeserver-dhcp-dns/smeserver-dhcp-dns-1.2.0-2.el5.sme.noarch.rpm
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
--- End code ---

for sme9

--- Code: ---yum install http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/Sme-Server/smeserver-dhcp-dns/smeserver-dhcp-dns-1.2.0-2.el6.sme.noarch.rpm
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
--- End code ---

then when dhcp.leases is updated you can find the hostname of associated clients  with an ip in  /var/service/tinydns/root/data

if all is ok you can do


--- Code: ---ping HostnameClient
host HostnameClient
--- End code ---
and retrieve its IP and its full dns entry

you have an event dhcp-dns if you want to force the renew, however every 30 seconds, the dhcp.leases is watched.

Please test and report, thank in advance.
