DNS and LS command

Hi,

I have a DNS server with 1 primary zone (ZA).
In this zone, I have create 2 domains (DA and DB) with, in each domain, 2
aliases (S1 et S2).

I have enable the zone transfers.

If I try nslookup, and LS, I have :
[myserver.mydomain.ad]
za. NS server = myserver.mydomain.ad
s1.da A 1.1.1.1
s2.da A 1.1.1.2
s1.db A 1.1.2.1
s2.db A 1.1.2.2

So, the LS command give me the full list in the zone ZA

Here is my question : how to list data in a "sub-domain" ??
I need to obtain the da.za content.

I fI try "ls da.za" :
[myserver.mydomain.ad]
*** Can't list domain ourdomain.local: Query refused
The DNS server refused to transfer the zone ourdomain.local to your
computer. If this
is incorrect, check the zone transfer security settings for ourdomain.local
on the DNS
server at IP address 192.168.64.10.

Regards,

Yannick
 
not sure if this helps

nslookup>set type=ns
nslookup>da.za
--> this will give you the Ip address of the (authorative) dns server of the
da.za domain

nslookup>lserver <IP>
--> here you fill in the IP of that (authorative) dns server of the da.za
domain queried in the last command

nslookup>set type=a
nslookup>ls

that I believe should list your (sub-)domain

hope this helps... let me know regardsless
....Edwin.

Part of the issue is if ZA is a single label name zone, it may cause issues.
Keep in mind DNS is based on an hierarchal tree. A zone must have at least
two levels, such as za.com, za.local or even za.thebib.

When you invoke nslookup, it will use the DNS server listed in IP
properties. Is this the server at 192.168.64.10 that you enabled zone
transfers that comes up when you invoked nslookup? If not, repoint nslookup
to use that server by issuing this command:
server 192.168.64.10
Click to expand...
Now it will use that server.

Then:
ls -t da.za

But I never tested it with a single label zone name.
