DNS required for NAT and DHCP services?

I have a 10.6.2 server with a static IP, domain name, working as a gateway (I have my reasons) as well as providing some services inside and outside. My ISP has a PTR setup so the domain points to the static IP.
My question is, do I need the DNS service running on the server? Based on some of the docs it tells me to put my ISPs DNS servers in both of my servers ethernet port settings, as well as in the DHCP profile to give out to clients on the network. When I do this, clients cannot resolve names. I can ping IPs from the client, I can even ping my ISPs DNS servers from clients, but I can't resolve names. When I try to dig anything it just hangs there with a blinky cursor.
When I have the DNS service running it's all happy. The only thing is, clients on the LAN experience some serious lag when accessing services on the server, UNLESS I configure the DNS for my domain on the server with both internal and external IP addresses. Is that how it is supposed to be?

In the server zone files, the dedicated IP address should point to the machine name, as in name.someserver.com. The local IP address should point to name.local. If you have more than one domain name, the zone files should show their network IP address, not the dedicated IP address, which should only point to the machine name.
As a side note, I strongly advise against connecting a server directly to the Internet. It should be behind a router with DMZ/NAT/firewall capabilities. By the time you realize why, it will be too late.

  • What is the best DNS server for iCloud and Apple services?

    Hello. Im wondering what is the best DNS server to use with iCloud, and apple services.
    Does apple have a dedicatrd DNS server?
    I read a couple of articles stating that the google DNS servers like 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 slow down apple and facebook services.
    Did a couple of tests like iTunes streaming and found out that its true in some cases.

    Not always!

  • I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to My Mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services.   Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again." How do I fix this?

    Not sure if I am doing this right. This is my first time in the support community.
    I imagine what I put in my heading was supposed to go in here.
    I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to my mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again. See the documentation that came with your device for information about turning off network services"
    Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).

    Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
    If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:
    http://keithbalomben.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/telus-actiontec-v1000h-hacks-and-i nformation/
    Scroll down to DHCP Settings
    You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
    Username: tech
    Password: t3lu5tv
    ... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business.

  • Do I need to run local DNS server for NAT/DHCP to work?

    Hello,
    I'm coming across all kinds of explanations how to set up a server for public access, having a static IP and a pointed domain, but I have a dynamic public IP and don't need the server to be accessible through a domain name. I just want all the computers in my office to connect to the web over 1 cable connection. I've used Gateway Setup Assistant to set up NAT and DHCP and DNS and what not, but it didn't work out of the box. After some bootpd.plist fixes I now have DHCP working, it's handing out IP addresses, but all LAN connected machines cannot get onto the web, only the server can.
    What am I doing wrong? Should I configure my DNS server differently? Or should it not be on at all, couldn't the local machines use my ISP's DNS servers?
    Currently DNS is configured like this:
    Settings are:
    accept recursive queries from the following networks: localnets
    forwarder IP addresses: (empty)
    Zones are:
    private. primary zone
    134.23.24.in-addr.arpa. reverse zone

    Though still a valid question for others I guess, I got my DNS working. The network preferences didn't have external DNS servers configured for the local network interface.

  • DT require Oracle9i client and Oracle Services for MTS software

    "Distributed Transactions require Oracle9i client and Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server software."
    I get the error above when attempt to run a COM+ transaction accessing Oracle9i. I'd been checked the installation of Oracle9i and Oracle Services in the client computer and it is ok.
    I am using Windows Server 2003 and the database server is on another Windows Server 2003. The database is Oracle9i Enterprise Edition.
    At Stanford's web site (http://www.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/9i/win.920/a95496/ch1.htm#1079911) I found Oracle's documentation that explains this, but it didn't worked for me.
    Oracle Services is installed in both machines.
    The Oracle MTS Recovery Service is running.
    The COM+ component is registered.
    When I use the same component with SQL Server 2005 beta 2 it works fine. What else do I need to do?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi.
    I have the same problem, one which works and another which don't (almost though).
    I got most of it to work by taking the mtsservices registry entry from the server that works and put it on to the other after i have made the service in Oracle management console for mts.
    Now i can search, delete, change but not make a new entry into the database.
    And thats where i'm stuck now.
    Hope it helps a bit..

  • Requirements for integration of XYZ Service - SAP.

    Hi Team,
    Appriciate any help on understanding the below requirement and how/where to start work in XI.
    Requirements for integration of XYZ Service - SAP.
    XYZ Service has CRM middle where and SAP ECC 6.0
    XYZ Service Calls
    =============
    1. All the completed calls in XYZ Service has to go in SAP automatically for validation process.
    2. All call details (parameters) has to come in sap from XYZ Service to SAP like..
         Field Name:
         =========
         Per No.
         official no.
         mohile no.
         Cust Name.
         Address.
         etc.
    3. All the AMC generated in XYZ Service should replicate to SAP, with all the customers, AMC and product details.
    Validation in SAP:
    ==============
    4. In SAP we have to validate the calls according to below parameters.
        --> date of purchase :  abc validation
        --> Serial No. :   Should be n fixed lenght with some format
        --> Part & Qty. : Same part should not have been consumed in last 30 days in same unit.
        -->
        -->
        etc.
    Process in SAP
    ============
    5. All the calls which carry the spare parts has to approve by the store person. He can approve/disapprove the call.
    6. Call without spare part have to approve by system once validation process finish and it will considerin qlt report in sap.
    7. If the store peroson disapproves tthe call it has to go back XYZ Service and reprocess again.
    8. Prepare quality report for all the calls in SAP.
    9. Consumption report has generate for each call wise.
    10. Call wisw defective settlement( replenishment) in SAP and generate automatic loan settlement.
    11. Franchisee bill claim to SAP.
    12. ASC can change the disapproved calls and reprocess it again.
    As for my understanding and discussions from the above requiremet,
    Customer/franchisee/client....enters the request/data through the Web Application .
    process from CRM and then to SAP ECC 6.0. after all the process complete details to be shown on Web Applications.
    So here where exactly supposed ti implemet the XI system and little bit of confuse how and where to start from.
    Please guide me to start the above mentioned and give me a break to learn and do lot of things in XI/PI.
    Regards,
    Ramana.

    Thank you Gaurav.
    However, as for my understanding...as the client using a legacy system for getting the information.
    also The data is given on Web Application ( say via portal) and the data verified from CRM system and then processed via SAP ECC 6.0 giving the required information on the Wb Application to the client (Portal)
    That means needto implement XI integration to show the complete required information on the web application.
    Only this is I am not knowing how to frame this complete design and where and how exactly to stat.
    Please correct me if I am wrong and if possible with the same relavent information.
    Thank you for your valuable support.
    Regards,

  • HT204053 Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services from two different devices - iPhone and iPad?

    Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services simultaneously on two different devices - iPhone and iPad? It seems those are competing to each other, and the services work on one of them only (iPhone).

    Many thanks, Sir! Both are mine and it's good to know that imessage can work on both with the same Apple ID. Will now have to find out why imessage stopped working on iPad when it started on iPhone (new). After exploring the forum I understand  that there may be plenty of reasons why imessage does not work, even though it worked previously on the same device with the same ID.

  • Security for SOA and Web Services

    Dipak Chopra's 09 Dec 04 "Security for SOA and Web Services" piece has been a terrific starter for me as I start to delve into this topic. Does SAP/the SDN plan to publish an SAP-specific roadmap to show the adherence to and adoption of these standards in NetWeaver? (Or maybe there is such a published roadmap that I am unaware of?)

    Hi Randy
    SAP follows and participates in Security and other Web services standards very closely as we recognize the opportunity they present our customers for developing solutions and integrating systems faster at lower cost.
    However many of the standards are still in development and so are not quite yet ready for "prime time". This means that we can't really publish a "road map" as it would be continually changing. However, if you want an idea on which standards SAP thinks are important, please take a look at this presentation [1] which was delivered at the last Tech Ed.

  • Requirement for client and server installation

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle database 10g and Oracle Developer 10g.I'd like to make a client server application.
    1. What installation is required for the server side?
    2. What installation is required for the client side?
    3. I'd like the client to access the form application using internet browser.What are the configuration should I fullfil?
    Many Thanks,
    Imelda

    Hi,
    there is no client-server anymore in Oracle Forms. Its a web only deployment. So 1-2 no longer apply.
    3) You need to install Oracle Jinitiator on the client or the Java 1.4 Plugin. Both can be configured for automatic installation.
    See the Oracle Application Server documentation and whitepapers on otn.oracle.com/products/forms to learn about how to install and run Forms Services

  • DNS different for internet and both iTunes

    Trying to troubleshoot internet connectivity problems with Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
    1. Is DNS for Internet the same for iTunes and App Store?
    2. What would cause all 3 browsers to not find any website (google, yahoo)

    In the server zone files, the dedicated IP address should point to the machine name, as in name.someserver.com. The local IP address should point to name.local. If you have more than one domain name, the zone files should show their network IP address, not the dedicated IP address, which should only point to the machine name.

  • HT5616 How can you see a list of devices registered to use our apple ID for FaceTime and other services?

    Sometimes I will get a notification that x device is using my apple ID for FaceTime (or other services). Sometimes it is just generic Mac Book Pro. His can I see which devices are using my ID (and can you see more details than just the name)?

    I just started getting this message too.  Just started the last couple of days.  It doesn't give a time that it was used.  All it says that "appleid" was used to sign in to facetime on Macbook.  My Macbook is not named "Macbook."  It also doesn't correlate to times when computer is being used.

  • Trying to install features for PowerPivot and Reporting Services from SQL Server 2012 with SP2, but no access to key?

    Hi,
    I had installed SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot on WFE and App Server. This is test farm with 1 WFE and 1 APP and 1 SQL Server.
    However, we had a heap of issues with Windows Claims Authentication and PowerPivot - issues were raised with "unable to make a connection to EntityDataSource" . Now we uninstalled the PowerPivot and Reporting Services features and wanted to install
    with the SQL Server 2012 with SP2. Originally SP2 was installed seperately and we had read there had been issues.
    Anyway on trying to install the features again using the SQL Server 2012 with SP2 iso I get 
    Could not open key UNKNOWN\Components
    I don't want to start deleting or changing permissions as quite dodgey. What is this key for anyway and how do I resolve my issue.
    Thanks.
    John.

    Hi John,
    Did you meet the error message during the process of configuring the PowerPivot for SharePoint?
    If yes, I suppose that the existing features or components have not been uninstalled completely.
    I recommend to delete the two keys left when uninstalling the PowerPivot and please make a copy of the registry keys before you delete the two keys:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\15.0\WSS\ServiceProxies\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Sharepoint.Integration.MidTierServiceProxy
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\15.0\WSS\ServiceProxies\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.Sharepoint.Integration.MidTierServicea
    Please check the steps in the link below to see if there anything wrong when you uninstalling the PowerPivot and then re-install it to see how it works:
