[07:48] hi dupingping hows china? [07:48] Maaz ty [07:48] You are welcome Kilos [08:11] hi kilos [09:22] Good morning [09:25] Was wondering if someone here could give me any ideas. We have a dashboard hosted internally, but it's also accessible from the outside. How would I use the same DNS name for both? [09:44] Squirm: so externally the name resolves to an internet ip and internally the same name resolves to an internal ip? [09:44] thatgraemeguy: That's what I want [09:45] what do you use for name resolution internally? [09:45] The problem is our router doesn't route our external IP when I try and connect to it from the inside [09:45] no, it won't [09:45] We have a dns server [09:45] Moving to bind soon [09:46] on your dns server you create a zone with the FQDN of the relevant name and set the A record to the internal ip [09:46] We do that already [09:46] um, then it ought to work [09:47] It does [09:47] But it's maintaining all of our zones :D [09:47] then I don't understand the question [09:49] thatgraemeguy: I wondered if it was possible to have one zone, that could manage internal and external addresses [09:50] you mean have the answer be different based on the querying client ip? [09:50] Yes, something like that [09:51] hrmmm ok [09:51] sorry, no idea :) [09:51] the normal solution here is that your internal DNS serves internal people and external DNS serves external people [09:51] Haven't found anything on the Google, so just thought I'd get some ideas :D [09:51] thatgraemeguy: that's what we have [09:51] yes i know [09:52] yip u will have to have 2 dns servers running for ur problem [09:52] I'm just re-iterating that that is the way I've always seen it done :) [09:52] :P [09:52] I know [09:52] anton: seems like it [09:52] our external is hosted with afrihost then our normal bind for internal [09:53] anton: Yeah, we use Amazon's Route53 [09:54] other possible solution is to run a logon script with hosts forced when they are at the office? [09:57] anton: I suppose the goal was to get away from having two DNS servers [09:57] * Squirm shrugs [09:58] nope not for a while i'm afraid [09:59] All's well [10:22] Squirm: you could always update the 1001 internal clients' local hosts file with a static entry to the internal address :-) [10:23] that would not be a very good idea though [10:23] maintaining an internal DNS server is really the way to go and not so difficult at all [10:29] inetpro: I know [10:29] But it's a cool idea :D [12:10] Squirm: can the internal clients access it using the external address? [12:50] pieter2627: yeah. But not from internally [12:51] hmm, why? [12:52] my internal clients can access the home server using its external address... [12:52] so thought that you might be able to use that... together with some iptables maybe [18:31] my trackpad is a bit crazy tonight [18:39] Has it tried to kill your cat because you aren't twiddling it often enough? [18:42] goeienaand [19:21] Evening [19:58] Hey Squirm [22:03] exit
