That would be the right way to implement dynamic DNS updates (DDNS) within you network. Christian ==========================================================Dipl.-Ing.

That is the normal approach. You could probably make something using the preexec settings if you really wanted to.

Samba (as far as I know) knows nothing about FQDN's. isc dhcpd.conf: Global # ad-hoc DNS update scheme - set to "none" to disable dynamic DNS updates. ddns-update-style interim; deny-client-updates; ddns-ttl 1; one-lease-per-client on; Zone include ddns-updates on; option domain-name "mydomain.xxx"; ddns-domainname "mydomain.xxx"; ddns-rev-domainname "IN-ADDR.ARPA"; Cheers,> > > > Bye > Andreas > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
