Zentyal 6 DHCP update DNS
« on: January 10, 2019, 05:12:52 am »
Hi,

I have selected the DHCP option to update DNS records.

This feature only works for domain machines. Non-domain machines cannot be reached by name, only IP address.

Can anyone help troubleshooting this?

Thanks.

146 read and no answers...
That topic is not solved and is a real pain.
This is a very basic feature of a system like Zentyal, to register DHCP leases into the DNS. If it's broken, you can't claim to have DNS and DHCP sync'ed.
I could setup a DNS with DHCP and get every new leases register to DNS without a problem on Ubuntu 18.04, but Zentyal is using scripts and templates so I could not patch my system. Look like a Kerberos key problem or at least some bad permissions somewhere.

I'm not sure that product is still under developpement, this is a real bug preventing Zentyal to do his work, leaving it totally useless.

Tested with 6.0 (not modded):
Code: [Select]

The more I dig in theses forum, the more I found that project is totally forgotten.
You got dozen of messages with the same error, DHCP not able to update DNS.

You are right, this project is pretty much forgotten.  Forum is dead, strange errors here and there, no support (or concern) at all from Zentyal developers.  I've had a problem forever where the reverse zone won't update, gives an error  update failed: rejected by secure update (REFUSED), but getting any help at all is non-existent.
