whenever possible. If set to no (case sensitive), all transfers to the remote server are
non-incremental.
Performing Dynamic Updates
For dynamic updates to be processed by the Name Server, specify the IP addresses of
the systems from where the requests can be received. The IP addresses are specified
in the configuration file under the zone entry.
The basic syntax of such an entry in the configuration file is:
For example:
zone "example.com " {
type master;
file "db.example";
allow-update { 10.53.0.24; };
};
This example indicates that the Name Server is a Master for the zone “example.com”
and the Name Server can update the zone data file “db.example” upon receiving the
update requests from the system configured with IP address 10.53.0.24.
The allow-update clause specifies which hosts are allowed to submit dynamic DNS
updates for Master zones. The default is to deny updates from all hosts.
zone "zone-name " {
type master;
file "zone filename";
allow-update { list of IP-addresses; };
};
