Tiger slow? Check DNS entries

I had an issue with Tiger being very sluggish - lingering seemingly forever before completing that blue bar in the address field and opening the desired page.
It was finally discovered that the origin of the problem had nothing to do with Tiger, but with my sysadmin's primary DNS server at the time having it's own pains.
By merely changing the order of DNS servers the problem disappeared completely.
(see system preferences->network and select built-in-ethernet, then TCP/IP to access DNS server entries.)
Hoping this will be helpful to someone - WGO

  • Servermgr_dns: no reverse DNS entry for server

    Hi all,
    After installing and configuring OS X Server, Tiger, I realized I had given the machine the wrong IP-address. After changing it, I'm getting the following errors every half hour:
    Jun 28 12:54:26 g4 servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no name available via DNS for 10.0.0.3
    Jun 28 12:54:26 g4 servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no reverse DNS entry for server, various services may not function properly
    Can anyone enlighten me, as to wether this is something serious or not. The server is running fine, so it isn't mission critical, but you know, nobody likes error messages

    NAME
    changeip -- Change IP adress related configuration.
    SYNOPSIS
    changeip -checkhostname
    changeip [directory-node | -] old-ip new-ip [old-hostname new-hostname]
    DESCRIPTION
    changeip is used to update configuration records when a server's IP
    address changes or check/fix the hostname of the server. It needs to be
    run by root on the machine who's IP address is changing. If the machine
    is hosting a parent directory (NetInfo or LDAP) or is connected to a par-
    ent directory, then the Open Directory path to the node must be used (eg
    /LDAPv3/192.12.0.43). Otherwise use a dash ("-") for the directory node
    argument. The tool may prompt for an admin user name and password for
    the directory node. After the tool has successfully completed, change
    the network settings in the Network Control Panel and reboot the server.
    </pre>
    you need to run this when you change your servers ip
    hope this helps.

  • DNS entry for DC not dynamically updating (Server 2008 R2)

    Windows Server 2008 R2. I've got a single DC (I'm preparing to install the 2nd in the next few days). The host (A) record for the DC shows to be static for some reason. I changed the name of the DC recently, then brought down the Exchange server and rebooted
    and it successfully connected again. I might have entered in a static DNS entry for the new server name before renaming the server, but I'm not sure.
    I've tried to delete the static DNS record for the DC and then reload, but it continues to appear as a static entry. The mail server's DNS record still appears as a dynamic entry.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hello,
    Like Mike suggested, it is normal that it is a static record.
    However, if your DC with its new name is not updating its DNS record, check that "Register this connection' addresses in DNS" is checked on the DC's adapter and then run
    ipconfig /registerdns using an elevated prompt.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 DNS Entry Auto remove not working

    Dear All,
    I have configured DNS Ageing for 30 days removal of unwanted host entry.but it will not work.
    Active directory DNS having all unwanted host in forward lookup zone and as well as reverse lookup zone.
    how to solve this ?
    pls help

    Hi,
    This is a rather common problem when configuring Scavenging and Aging of stale DNS entries.  This has to be set in two spots, not just one as so many admins have difficulties with.  It isn't very obvious. 
    Aging and Scavenging must be set on both the DNS Server and on the Zone
    that you want to clean.  In addition, DNS needs to be Active Directory integrated and resource records need to be dynamically registered.  Static entries are ignorned.
    First step: 
    To set aging and scavenging properties for the DNS Zones using the Windows interface           
    Open DNS Manager.
    In the console tree, right-click the applicable DNS server, and then click
    Set Aging/Scavenging for all zones.
    Select the Scavenge stale resource records check box.
    Modify other aging and scavenging properties as needed.
    Second Step:
    To set aging and scavenging properties for the DNS Server using the Windows interface           
    Open DNS Manager.
    In the console tree, right-click the applicable DNS server, and then click
    Properties.
    Select the Advanced tab,and then enable Enable automatic scavenging of stale records
    check box. Once done, specify the Scavenging period (That is recurring
    interval for Scavenging on a DNS server)  and click on OK
    That will do it.  Your DNS entries will then start auto scavenging based on the times you have determined. Word of caution - do not set your aging too aggressively - I have seen where an admin had set aging down to 1 day and when it finally kicked
    off, nearly brought the company to a halt.

    Here is the resolv.conf. The first dns server is itself, the others
    are the other two DSFW servers here:

  • No Name Available / No Reverse DNS Entry in System Log

    On our network, we have two Macs running different versions of OSX Server software. Our "main" server is a G5 dual 2GHz (2.5 Gb RAM) running Leopard Server 10.5.6, and it runs most of our major services such as Open Directory (it’s designated an OD Master), Mail, Web, FTP and DNS. Our "secondary" server is an XServe dual 2.3GHz (G5) (2 Gb RAM) running Tiger Server 10.4.11. It only runs the AFP service and exists solely as our company’s fileserver. Both of its ethernet ports are connected to our company’s 10/100 switch, and the ports are configured as follows: Built-in Ethernet 2 (BSD Device Name en1) IP addr. 10.1.10.154; Built-in Ethernet 1 (BSD Device Name en0) IP addr. 10.1.10.152. In the Network control panel’s Network Port Configurations, Built-in Ethernet 2 (IP address 10.1.154) is moved to the top of the configuration window and as a result, Network Status indicates that that XServe "is connected to the Internet via Built-in Ethernet 2."
    That said, I see the following every 30 minutes in the System log:
    Apr 20 11:01:51 NAGXServe2 servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no name available via DNS for 10.1.10.154
    Apr 20 11:01:51 NAGXServe2 servermgrd: servermgr_dns: no reverse DNS entry for server, various services may not function properly
    This doesn’t cause any apparent problems in daily operation but if it’s something I could fix myself, I’d be willing to try. In the TCP/IP configuration for both ports, the DNS Server entry points to our "main" G5 server (which has a static IP address) and the Search Domain entry is that "main" G5 server’s domain name.
    In the DNS setup on the "main" G5 server, its domain name is entered in the "Primary Zone" field and its static IP address is entered in the Reverse Zone field; Whois lookups work successfully both forward and backward. But there is no mention of our "secondary" server anywhere in the "main" G5 server’s DNS setup.
    Thanks for any help!

    I am going to assume that the IP addresses you have given are REAL.
    You have to add an entry for NAGXServe2 in the DNS server's (NAGXServe1?) configs.
    First, what you need to enter are hostnames. The zone/domainname (example.com) should resolve to one representative server (your main server) for www service's sake, but otherwise, even your main server should have its own hostname (hostname.example.com).
    Let's say you already have an entry for your domain, example.com. This zone should already have one (or even two) A record, nagxserve1.example.com (and maybe example.com, without any hostname). You need to add another A record for nagxserve2.example.com with the IP address 10.1.10.154.
    You do this buy selecting "Computer (A) record" from the "Add record" dropdown button. A new A record called "newMachine" should appear under the zone record. If you can't see it, try clicking on the little triangle next to the zone/domain name.

  • Event Manager question. Monitoring DNS entry.

    Hello everybody,
    I  want to use Cisco Embedded Event Manager in a router for monitoring a  DNS entry that normally resolves 1.1.1.1 but if it changes to 2.2.2.2 the  router has to change some access list automatically in order to permit different  routes.
    I  know how to configure de "action" sentences for change the ACLs but I  dont know how to configure a track or a SLA in order to check the DNS  entry and react if it changes.
    Someone knows how to do that?
    event manager applet ChangeRoutesWhenDNSEntryChanges
    event track 21 state ??????????????????????????????????????????????????<----------
    action 1.0 cli command "enable"
    action 2.0 cli command "configure terminal"
    action 3.0 cli command "ip access...
    Thank you in advance!!
    Marcos.

    Indeed, I just provided the above example to demonstrate how we can force a DNS lookup and parse the IP address...
    I was actually thinking about using the IP SLA DNS probe, but I could not find a way to get the IP address from the results... It just shows the response time.
    In order to make the script work, we would most likely need to use some timer to trigger it periodically.
    This is an adaptation of my previous example to actually accomplish a periodic check:
    event manager applet CHECK-DNS
    event timer watchdog time 60
    action 1.0 cli command "ena"
    action 1.1 cli command "ping host1 repeat 1 timeout 0"
    action 2.0 regexp "ICMP Echos to (.*), timeout is 0 seconds:" "$_cli_result" _match _ip
    action 3.0 if $_ip ne 1.1.1.1
    action 4.0  syslog msg "host1 is now $_ip"
    action 5.0 end
    If you want to do something as a reaction to detecting the change, that would have to go into the "4.0" block (you can use 4.1, 4.2 etc)
    Another thing to consider is that this script would run every minute, so as long as the DNS query resolves to anything but 1.1.1.1 we would re-apply the config changes, which is not that good...
    A way to solve this can be seen in the next example:
    event manager applet HOST1-NOT-1.1.1.1
    event timer watchdog time 60
    action 1.0 cli command "ena"
    action 1.1 cli command "ping host1 repeat 1 timeout 0"
    action 2.0 regexp "ICMP Echos to (.*), timeout is 0 seconds:" "$_cli_result" _match _ip
    action 2.1 track read 100
    action 3.0 if $_ip eq 1.1.1.1
    action 4.0  if $_track_state eq down
    action 4.1   track set 100 state up
    action 4.2   syslog msg "host1 is now 1.1.1.1 again"
    action 4.9  end
    action 5.0 else
    action 6.1  if $_track_state eq up
    action 6.2   track set 100 state down
    action 6.3   syslog msg "host1 is not 1.1.1.1, new ip is $_ip"
    action 6.9  end
    action 7.0 end
    Basically we are using a stub tracking object to maintain state. Track object 100 would be up if we know host1=1.1.1.1, but if we detect it is something else we change it to down. Only after we detect that host1=1.1.1.1 again we change the track object back to up, which would enabled detecting another change...
    Any actions you want to take should go into section "6" and any clean up (when host1=1.1.1.1 again) has to go into section "4".
    It is possible to make this detect any change and not just have a static 1.1.1.1 value by assigning the newly detected value to a variable and basically look for a change... Not sure what is your requirement.
    The output below shows how this works...
    Router#show run | inc ip host
    ip host host1 1.1.1.1
    Router#conf t
    Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

  • DirectAccess DNS Entries

    I am trying to troubleshoot my once working DirectAccess setup and I am thinking it has to do with a possibly corrupt internal DNS.
    It's possible that with the recent integration of a UTM50 firewall that my DNS settings got messed up, what are the standard DNS entries for DA with a fresh install?
    Is it possible to repopulate the DNS server from DA?

    Well until recently we only had one static IP address, I then purchased a block of 5 which I NAT through my firewall (NEGEAR UTM50) it was at this point that I my clients started to experience a whole variety of errors. At first I thought
    maybe I had setup the static IP addresses incorrectly and I called NETGEAR to double check my work which appears to be correct as other services such as exchange are working as intended. However, nothing I did or have tried thus far has resolved
    my issues with DirectAccess. I have made sure that the rule to forward port 443 is in place and I can verify on the outside that it is in fact open and going to the right internal system.
    My clients are seeing the following errors: 
    DirectAccess connectivity status for user: <domain>\<user> is
    Error: Corporate connectivity is not working. Windows is unable to contact the DirectAccess server. 7/11/2012 6:55:38 (UTC)

    I then managed to get some to connect but they quickly disconnect and then eventually they revert back to the above.

  • Allocating a (local/in-house) IP address and DNS entry for a cabled Ethernet printer

    I have an MI424WR Fios modem/wireless router.  I have a laser printer connected to it using standard CAT-5 cabling.
    I have tried several times to create a persistent enough IP address so that I can configure a Windows (Windows 7 and Windows 8) printer and printer port and get it to work over time.  On ever other router I've had, I was able to configure a static IP address and configure a local DNS entry for it (which meant I could just configure printer ports looking for http://colorlaser - very easy to remember)
    I think I have it working, then I leave it for a few days and the IP address evaporates and the driver stops working.  The MI424WR advanced menus are nearly indecipherable (compared to *every* other home router I've ever used) and I'm running out of curse words to use when trying to get this to work.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Flydog
    (PS: I'm very impressed that your "Spell Check" refuses to recognize "Fios")

    I've solved this exact issue by configuring a static DHCP lease in the router for the printer.  This way, I don't have to change any settings in the printer; which can be difficult depending on how the printer is configured.
    Yes, I agree that the Actiontec router has a rather unfriendly interface.  However, it is quite powerful once you figure out where everything is hidden.
    Here's the process to setup a static DHCP lease for a printer (or any other device):
    Make sure your printer is on and assigned an IP address.
    Login to router
    Click "My Network" in the top banner menu.
    Click "Network Connections" in the left hand menu.
    Click "Network (home/office)" in the Network Connections box.
    Click "IP Address Distribution" in the Network (home/office) Properties box.  Note it is hard to notice this is a link - click on the words.
    Click on the "Connection List" button at the bottom of the IP Address Distribution Box.
    Locate your printer in the list.  The host-name may be something assigned by the router.
    Click on the edit button in the Action column for the printer.  The edit button is the center icon with a pencil on it.
    Click the "Static Lease Type" checkbox.
    Click Apply.
    Click the edit button for the printer's DHCP entry AGAIN.
    Now, you can set the IP address to any value within the router's DHCP range.  You may also want to change the host name to something that make sense to you.
    You can also try the "New Static Connection" at the bottom of the DHCP connection window, however I've not had much luck with it.
    Good Luck!

  • Time evaluation generate check out entry

    Dear Gurus,
    How can we generate Check out entries thru Time evaluation?
    The sales employees come to office in the morning, they punch in and leave for sales activity. They don't get overtime, but pay / absence quota deducted if they don't check in in the system.
    While running Time evaluation, I am getting error in TE03 (delimiting error). I hv tried creating second entry using TF00. Its not working. Has anybody any solution for this?
    Regards,
    Vijay

    Hi Gurus,
    I am rephrasing my requirements.  have 2 queries,
    1. Sales Employees make only Clock In entries. System should generate the clock out entry or should not throw any error message. System should consider total working time from daily work schedule.
       - TE30 function is generated the entry in TEVEN table based on planned end time, but we need to create the entry in IT2012 otherwise, while processing next days entry, it generates error.
       - Will TF00 create an entry in Time Events IT2051 ? IF yes, how can I tweak TF00 rule to generate Time out entry.
    2. General Staff working hours need to be calculated from Shift Start even if they come early. Max working time is 12 hours with 4hrs from start of end of Shift period
       - If shift start is 7AM, I have defining Start tolerance as 6AM to 7:05AM, but still the system is considering the Clock In time for hours worked. 
    I have to write this condition. How to write ?
       If Clock-in Time < Start Time
          Then   TIP->From = Start Time
    I believe it has to be put in TL10 after rounding the Check in & check outs.. so as to update table TIP,
    Please suggest,
    Regards,
    Vijay

  • Check user entry in Customer Exit Variable in i_step2

    Hi Folks,
    at the moment I'm facing a challenging problem. In an BW Query i have a Customer Exit defined as "not ready for Input" to catch the Variable in I_Step = 2 and fill by a certain algorithm. When i change the CE Variable to "Inputready", the user can enter values, but i have no chance to react on these values as i_step = 2 will not b reached during execution- And this behaviour is correct. BUT is there any chance to Check user entries in an Customer Exit variable and change this somehow in des code?
    Thanks for all replies.
    BR,
    Maik

    Hi there,
    It is possibel depending on what you wish to accomplish.
    You can create two variables for the same characteristic.
    The first is an input ready variable for the user to enter the data and the second is a not input ready variable CE where you can in step 2 process the data entered from the variable ready for input.
    You can than fill the CE variable with any data, but you will have the variable restricted by the two variables (the ready for input and the CE).
    But for validating you could throw an error message based on the variable input ready.

      Hi Itzell T,
          While creating the material the unit of measurement which is entered is not existing in the SAP System. The unit of measurement entered during creation of material is cross checked from enteries of check table T006.
          So, functional consultant should take care of this issue just let him know the message.
       He know what problem actually is and fix the problem as Ankur had said.

  • How to add DNS entry Post Installation in Solaris 10?

    Hi, I have installed Solaris 10 without mentioning the DNS entry while installation. How do I add that now in order to make that Solaris 10 to get connected to Internet ?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Girish Prabhakara.

    Solaris 10 changed the way that some things work regarding networking, but this should still work.
    1. Change the hosts: line in /etc/nsswitch.conf to include dns.
    For example, change:
    hosts files
    to
    hosts files dns
    2. Create /etc/nsswitch.conf with the IP addresses of your DNS servers:
    Example:
    nameserver 192.168.1.100
    nameserver 192.168.2.100
    3. kill -HUP 1
    4. Run nslookup or ping another server via host name (not IP address) to determine if the system is properly communicating with your DNS servers.
