I'm trying to get some subdomains working on a linux server at work. Once I figure this out there I'll probably use this same technique here someday.
Some help from our other technically savvy users would be appreciated - I'm going to continue to hunt on google of course while I wait.
Anyway, my company machine is hosting a set of pages for the local city government and it's departments. I am to set them up as follows
www.williamsburgky.com <-- Main page, tourism pages
police.williamsburgky.com <-- Police page
firedept.williamsburgky.com <-- Fire Dept page
cityhall.williamsburgky.com <-- City Hall.
Eventually there will be others.
I created a zone file named williamsburgky.zone with these contents.
I created a reverse lookup file called master.zone and here are it's contents.
I started up named, and it's running so apparently there are no syntax errors. However, a dig command to the police.williamsburgky.com returns
And an internal ping on the same machine for the address returns
tekswork.com is our company's own domain, hosted on the same site. Machine 210 is our Windows 2003 machine, which was our prior webhost before I set up this linux machine (and I still need to set it up to receive queries to exchange.tekswork.com for our email services).
Anyway, any ideas?
