Hostname/dns Lookup And Exim.
May 28, 2007
I am having a problem. My server was able to ping google.com successfully before installing DirectAdmin.
However after installing DirectAdmin, I am no longer able to ping google.com anymore. I just get a host cannot be found error. This is the same with all other domains.
The /etc/resolv.conf is exactly the same, so I do not know the issue. I also have other servers using the same nameserver and are still able to ping and resolve successfully.
The main problem here is that exim no longer can send email as it cannot lookup the hostnames.
the error from exim is: R=lookuphost defer (-1): host lookup did not complete.
Thats the only error within the message.

if I do a reverse lookup on my server's IP it returns a host assigned by the data center. So is this something I should even be managing too or is that always left up to the DC? I run my own DNS for the forward lookup zones.
Also just a technical question, when you do a reverse lookup, how does it know where to look to get the host? I'm not sure I fully understand how these work.

Somebody purchased a domain from a popular registrar. When you lookup the domain, it points to its own name servers (i.e. ns1.registrar.com and ns2.registrar.com), which means that it is hosted by them as well. correct?
this person is saying they bought their domain from the registrar, but they are hosted by company X. he says that he is pointing the ip address of his web site on company X to his registrar.

I want to know how serious following nameserver problem can be in reality:
[url] ?
From DNS timing someone could conclude it's a slow hosting.
Can anyone explain above results "accurately" ? I still don't know what's "good" result in DNS timing: A or F?
The problem is that
[url] loads slow (5-10 seconds on T1 connection), here's a speed test. I'm aware images and scripts contribute to slow site loading.
My question is: Beside removing some images from the Home page, is it any reason to change the hosting (regarding DNS tests).

Its a newly configured VPS have a problem with smtp realying through outlook and other smtp programs. When i use smtp on outlook it give following error:
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'xxxxx@yahoo.com'. Subject 'Outlook', Account: 'Testing', Server: 'xxxx.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 5.7.1 <xxxxx@yahoo.com>... Relaying denied. IP name possibly forged [xx.xxx.xx.xxx]', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
I want to make outgoing authentication activate instead of allowing some iprange or domain for relaying through /etc/mail/access.

I have six dedicated servers on a VPR. I use one of these as the Database server and the other five connects to that server to read the Database.
When I setup my scripts for the first time I used the external IP to connect to the DB server. Everything worked perfect for these weeks:
mysql_connect('174.xxx.xxx.xx', 'user', 'pass');
Since three days ago I finally received the internal IPs of my servers and now I use the internal IP of the DB server:
mysql_connect('10.0.0.1:3306', 'user', 'pass');
When I did this last change this my database started to collapse. Queries stuck on a bottleneck every 10 minutes. Here's an example:
40468 simon 10.0.0.7:47002 pkindigo_db Query 115 Locked update `captured` set hp_left = '79', status = 'normal', att1pp = '25', att2pp = '30', att3p
40523 simon 10.0.0.2:58080 pkindigo_db Query 115 Locked update `captured` set experience = '5120', level = '16', hp_left = '58', hp = '58', status =
... (tons of locked queries before) ...
As you may see table is locked since 115 seconds for a simple update... after some hours this ends on a "#1135 - Can't create a new thread (errno 13); if you are not out of available memory, you can consult the manual for a possible OS-dependent bug" and even some of my tables finally crashing.
I think that my Database stuck because of a DNS lookup delay. When I had this problem before using the external IPs, I added skip-name-resolve and the problem was fixed. But now with the internal IPs it seems that's not enough.

I'm having tons of problems trying to get reverse lookup working on my dns server. I've scoured the net and tried lots of methods but so far none work.
Forward lookup DNS is working perfect, but reverse lookup is completely broken.

Code:

if its possible to change the reverse lookup, or at least i think thats what it is called.
I have 2 accounts on my CentOS, WHM/cPanel VPS and they are hosted on their own seperate IPs however when you do a lookup on one domain it also lists the other domain as being hosted on the server and vice-versa.
How do i change this so they appear like they are on different servers? Each one has their own nameservers which are on seperate IPs also.

My MySQL server slowed down to a crawl a few days ago, and I finally fixed it by starting it without DNS lookups via "--skip-name-resolve".
I tested domain name resolution on the MySQL machine and it was able to return IPs from domains rather quickly, so I'm at a loss as to why DNS was the problem here? I am using "192.168.1.6" as the MySQL server's IP, in case that matters?
I have a couple of questions:Why is DNS resolution so slow when in the command line it's running normally?
Why does MySQL need to do DNS lookups at all? I don't see any log files that's converting IPs to host names or vice versa.

Where am I sending e-mails from with the below settings:
(Is it mail.freesexdoor.com, www.freesexdoor.com, 64.85.161.123 or 64.85.161.124?)
My secondary question is: Is creating own reverse IP lookup to 64.85.161.124 possible and beneficial in my case? If so, what should I replace this SPF line with: freesexdoor.com. TXT "v=spf1 a mx ip4:64.85.161.123 ?all"?
I'm trying to improve freesexdoor.com's e-mail delivery ratio because hotmail and gmail deliver my PHP mailer's sent confirmation e-mails to the junk folder. I've done everything I can to improve the sent headers etc. so there's only one more possible way to improve it: (That I can think of). Freesexdoor.com is hosted on the same server as mitorahgames.com.
DirectAdmin control panel on CentOS 4.4.
My server's primary IP is: 64.85.161.123
My server's hostname is: server.mitorahgames.com
server.mitorahgames.com's Related DNS Settings:
mailA64.85.161.123
server.mitorahgames.com.A64.85.161.123
server.mitorahgames.com.NSns1.mitorahgames.com.

mailMX10
123.161.85.64.in-addr.arpaPTRserver.mitorahgames.com.
server.mitorahgames.com.TXT"v=spf1 a mx ip4:64.85.161.123 ?all"
freesexdoor.com's IP is: 64.85.161.124
freesexdoor.com's Related DNS Settings:

mailA64.85.161.124
mailMX10
freesexdoor.com.TXT"v=spf1 a mx ip4:64.85.161.123 ?all"
I'm by the way putting www.freesexdoor.com (PHP reported server name) to the Message ID: field in the e-mail headers. Would putting IP there perhaps work better? If so, which IP?

I regularly have DNS issues with some of my sites hosted with a specific host... At random sites, the urls done resolve and I get a DNS error.
Just to find out that a few hours later it loads again without issues...
I always thought it had something to do with my ISP... My host says that there's nothing wrong with their DNS.
However, I asked a few people now and it seems they're having DNS problems too sometimes when accessing the problematic urls...

I am having issues in receieving emails. For some reason, the rbl lists I had setup are causing the server to reject emails (retry - timeout). So, I need to take this rbl list completely. How can I do that? exim.conf is locked and using the advanced editor is no fun even though I tried it putting the dnslists without the rbl causing the problem.

Installed APF on a Fedora Core 6 box, had a problem with one of the modules (Unable to load iptables module (ipt_multiport), aborting) which was sorted by editing the functions file.
But I now get this come up 30 times when I start the firewall:
hostname: Unknown host
Some guides talk about setting a hostname but I dont have a domain name just an IP Address.
Then depending on what guide I look at there are references to different files. So I am not sure which file to edit.

I hope your day is going good. I've been trying to fix a problem I had all week. I receive daily email notification that "example.[url]" does not resolve to any IP. However, when in WHM, it already contains Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125. I've tried a few solutions from the web, but to no avail:
IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email.
The hostname (example.mydomainname.com) resolves to . It should resolve to 208.53.183.125. Please be sure to correct /etc/hosts as well as the 'A' entry in zone file for the domain.
Some are all of these problems can be caused by
/etc/resolv.conf being setup incorrectly. Please check this file if you
believe everything else is correct.
You may be able to automaticly correct this problem by using the
'Add an A entry for your hostname' under 'Dns Functions'
in your Web Host Manager
1) Within WHM, I have the following:
-Add an A entry for your hostname (I only have one listed)
Hostname: example.mydomainname.com
Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125
-Primary/secondary nameserver
Primary Nameserver: ns1.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.26)
Secondary Nameserver: ns2.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.27)
-Resolver Configuration
Primary Resolver: 66.90.68.25
Secondary Resolver: 66.90.68.26
-Additional IP my webhost gave me to use:
208.53.181.26 (used in primary name server)
208.53.181.27 (used in secondary name server)
208.53.181.28
-Current DNS Zone listing:
example.com (my website URL that is currently working)
example.mydomainname.com (hostname I made myself that contains the server main IP)
ns1.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.26)
ns2.mydomainname.com (A entry = 208.53.181.27)
2) My edit "edit /etc/resolv.conf" contains the following:
Search localdomain
nameserver 66.90.68.25
nameserver 66.90.68.26
Issue: I receive daily email notification that "example.mydomainname.com" does not resolve to any IP. However, when in WHM, it already contains Server Main Ip: 208.53.183.125.

Here are the scenarios :
1. This Dedicated Server don't have main domain name but I use something like hostname.domain.com for the hostname.
2. The nameservers I use are something like ns21.domain.com and ns22.domain.com which I registered it already on my domain registrar.
3. Domain.com is use on other Dedicated server
Are these kind of setup okay? or should I really changed the hostname.domain.com to something else that is hosted on the same server?

I have a server with RHEL 5 installed. The problem is that the server shows the output of the hostname command as (none). I checked the /etc/sysconfig/network file and it shows the correct hostname. I also tried to change the hostname in the /etc/sysconfig/network file and restart the server. But hostname command still shows (none).

I have a dedicated server with WHM 11.23.2. I am in the process of "attempting" to change the hostname for a group of websites and also the nameservers.
Let's say for practical senses that these were the old details:
Hostname: abc.example.com
Nameservers: ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com
I changed in the following sections of WHM..
Server Configuration -> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup -> Hostname to
123.newsite.com
and then...
Networking Setup -> Hostname to 123.newsite.com
and then...
Server Configuration -> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup -> Primary Nameserver to ns1.newsite.com and then...
Server Configuration -> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup -> Secondary Nameserver to ns2.newsite.com.
Then...
Networking Setup -> Nameserver IPs. I deleted the old ones and created the two new ones: ns1.newsite.com and ns2.newsite.com.
I have double checked that this information is still there. Obviously newsite.com is listed as a domain/account. However, example.com was naturally the first one associated with this server.
I performed a server reboot, apache reset etc.
This was three days ago. I assumed it had all changed over. Until I (stupidly) remembered that I hadn't changed the goDaddy information to point to these new nameservers. I panicked thinking all the sites (six of them) would be down. However, they weren't. When I tried to change the nameserver information for a domain in goDaddy it came back with errors... it would only accept ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com.
So, I did a tracert to the IP address of the server and indeed it comes back as abc.example.com. Every domain is associated with that static IP.
I can't even find anywhere where abc.example.com is listed within the WHM. All the new values are listed... so, where is it pulling this from? I thought the reset of the server (as a graceful reboot) would resolve this issue.. it hasn't. I've rebooted twice and awaited the thirty minutes for everything to get back online. No success.

I tried to do a traceroute and I get this message

My registrar is GoDaddy. Is there something I need to set up for xyz?
I have my private NS set up, ns1/ns2.mydomain.com with their associated IPs.
