Please help and thanks

Hi,

You don't say what exactly is your problem. Note that the dig results from here, are completely different from those you've posted. You can check them here.
Anyway in the zone file you've posted, the zone name should be zimbra.si (and not mail4.zimbra.si) and the the NS record is wrong
It should be something like:
Another thing that is not correct, is the external IP of mail.zimbra.si (84.255.0.0). It cannot be a host IP, as the 1st IP is reserved for the network/subnet to where that host belongs.

Thanks for answer.

My problem is than I can't nslookup zimbra.si (And I need that for installing zimbra 7.0)

I saw that -> http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Split_DNS


How do you thing that my external IP of mail.zimbra.si (84.255.0.0.) is not correct. I don't use this IP, this only means that my Provider has MX and A record for mail.zimbra.si (84.255.0.0).

Could I become your private e-mail, then i can sand your my real data, new I change some (only the names)

Thanks

Hi,

To resolve zimbra.si, you have to add an A record for it in the zone file:
Please note that's not a big deal, as you need the MX record of the zimbra.si zone and its respective A record, which you do have already.

If you want to implement a split dns, then better have a look here.

As I told you 84.255.0.0 is not a valid host IP, as the first IP of a subnet is reserved to the subnet itself. Read this for details about networking.

Thanks for your time

Please look if thats is OK

This I don't anderstand
As I told you 84.255.0.0 is not a valid host IP, as the first IP of a subnet is reserved to the subnet itself.

I don't use this IP (84.255.0.0) this is from my Provider. What is my valid IP ? What I have to change ?

The Zimbra mail server would not work if I can't do nslookup zimbra.si (my domain).

Thanks

You didn't increase the serial (it's still 10119 as in your 1st post). Here is the updated zone file, formatted inside CODE tags for better readability:
Note that blank space(s) in the beginning of the lines above are important.
Also you still insist to use the mail4.zimbra.si zone. You need just the zone zimbra.si, and in that zone you define the mail4.zimbra.si host.

You mentioned that IP in your 1st post. I cannot tell what IPs/subnet your ISP has assigned to you.
Once again though, your domain from outside looks ok according to this. Only that the various IPs are different from those mentioned by you.

Thanks for your help

Yes I now I have to increase number.

Also you still insist to use the mail4.zimbra.si zone. You need just the zone zimbra.si, and in that zone you define the mail4.zimbra.si host.

Where I have to change this ?? from mail4.zimbra.si to zimbra.si



Could I wrote to your private e-mail, then can I tell you precise informaction about my IP, about Provider,..

You should change it in named.conf:
You can if you want, but I don't see any reason to do so. You're trying to setup a mail server using private IPs, that are not reachable from the internet, so the info posted here cannot do any harm.

Thanks one time more, but I still have the problem. Please see my data


I still have the problem with nslookup my domain. Where is the problem

Where did this almont.si came out? I think you've somehow mixed 2 domains in your post!

My mistake when I wrote.

mail4:~ # nslookup zimbra.si
Server: 192.168.2.22
Address: 192.168.2.22#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find zimbra.si: No answer

Do you reload bind after editing the zone file?
You need to do this, so bind can read the changes done in the zone in question.

Do you reload bind after editing the zone file?

How can I reload bind ? I just restart computer.

Are my A in MX record OK ?

If I nslookup my domain (zimbra.si - this is not my domain), this domain is registered by provider, then I think MX and A record are OK.

But when I nslookup my hostname (mail4), then is a problem

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find zimbra.si: No answer

You can use:
if you have configured rndc (which I don't see in your named.conf). Or else depending on distro you can use
How should I know if they are ok? If you run "dig mx zimbra.si", replacing zimbra.si with your real domain and you get an answer with the MX RR and its A RR, like
then it's ok


Your server thinks it's not authoritative for that domain and no answer means it can't find the host in question. Run
and check the output.
Maybe you're editing the wrong zone file, since you cannot see the changes you're doing to the zone file.
