How to add new Solaris client into Solaris 10 DNS server?

3632963Nov 27 2018 — edited Jan 18 2019

Hello,

We just built a new Solaris 10 zone. And would like to add it to our DNS server. Its also Solaris 10 zone. I added entry into zone config file but not working. I did restarted the DNS services. And also added nameserver name into resolv.conf on client. Please let me know how can I get the hostname/IP resolved using this DNS server.

Please let me know what I am missing.

###bash-3.00# nslookup test-dev2-web-01 192.168.30.225

Server: 192.168.30.225

Address: 192.168.30.225#53

** server can't find test-dev2-web-01: REFUSED

####Zone file  /var/named/db.testsystem.com  for A record

bash-3.00# cat db.testsystem.com | grep 192.168.10.239 

test-dev2-web-01 IN A 192.168.10.239 ;DEV 2.0 Web-01

####zone file  /var/named/db.10.168.192.in-addr.arpa for PTR record

bash-3.00# cat db.10.168.192.in-addr.arpa  | grep 239.10.168.192

239.10.168.192.in-addr.arpa.    IN      PTR     test-dev2-web-01.

####Restarted DNS service:

bash-3.00# svcadm restart svc:/network/dns/server:default

###The resolv.conf on client is as below:

bash-3.00# cat /etc/resolv.conf

domain testsystem.com

nameserver 192.168.30.225

####The other existing clients are successfully able to resolve the hostname. e.g.:

bash-3.00# nslookup stage-dev1-web-01 192.168.30.225

Server: 192.168.30.225

Address: 192.168.30.225#53

Name: stage-dev1-web-01.testsystem.com

Address: 192.168.10.169

search testsystem.com

Please let me know if I am missing anything here. Thanks!
