dns_update   [plain text]


#!/bin/sh
#
# Example script for "wins hook".  This attempts to update the DNS with
# new A records for the NETBIOS name that Samba passes us. We do this
# the simple way, by deleting all DNS records for the name and then
# readding all the expected 'A' records.

# The domain in which to create names
#   YOU MUST CHANGE THIS
# N.B. include the trailing dot
#
# It is a good idea to use a subdomain of your primary domain to ensure
# that rogue machines can't take over (or delete) important names on
# your network.

# NETBIOS name types that we want to create DNS records for:
#	20 is server
#	00 is workstation
#	03 is user

# of the same name and IP addresses.  If you comment this out
