Hello there.
I'm Nicola Roserba and I work on Interbusiness, Italy.
I wish to let you know that I've probably found a bug on the Bind 4.9.2.
If you define new machines on a zone in this way:
machine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.001
anothermachine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.002
and then you query that zone, in this way:
host -avl domain.something authoritative-DNS-for-that-domain
you'll probably receive this:
machine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.wrong-IP
anothermachine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.wrong-IP.
"wrong-IP" means that you will receive a different last byte in IP address
for example:
machine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.4
If you remove the zeroes in the last byte of the zone where you define
the machine, like this:
machine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.1
anothermachine.domain.something IN A 194.243.100.2
the DNS will amswer correctly.
So it seems like the BIND doesn't appreciate the zeroes in a IP address
definition.
I can't find errors in my BIND configuration so I think this is a bug.
Do you agree?
Bye
