Dynamic DNS Updates in Debian

Introduction

There's not a lot of information on the web on how to get DHCP to automatically update your DNS server.

Most of this information relates to "Dynamic DNS" services, such as Monolith etc, or people asking questions on mailing lists.

First of all, I know no-one reads introductions, so I'll put this in bold.

Dynamic DNS updates will NOT work with ISC DHCP 2.x!

If you did `apt-get install dhcp` on etch, sarge or woody, you have DHCP 2. You will need DHCP 3 and BIND 9.

Upgrading is fairly simple:

It's that time again...

So I haven't written a journal entry for quite some time now, and felt that sudden urge in my spleen (no, not the clutching type).

As many of you know, I have an obsession with my spleen. Mainly because I previously didn't know what it did, or where it was, and was armed with the knowledge that spleens frequently rupture (right?...).

Anyway, off spleens for now, Happy New Year to everyone I didn't spend half my phone bill sms'ing on new years day. That, and half the sms's probably didn't get through because Optus is dodge as all hell.

Computer License

I'm a web developer for a government department (as you'd know if you read my journal).

Our department actually hosts sites for many other government departments, and does the development of a few of them too.

For some reason, many of our hosting clients seem to thing "web developer" means they can call me up with the problems they're having developing their own sites.

Gents, get yourself one of THESE hush puppies!
Laidies, clean your act up. Get out a pen and paper and take some notes.

Work and Play

Okay, so not so much play as work, but you get the idea...

I started a new job on Friday. Which is cool, cuz I applied for it on Tuesday, had an interview on Wednesday and got a call on Thursday asking me to come in hehe :)

Anyway, it's at a place called InTACT, which is like a sub-department of the Department of Finance (it's complicated). InTACT maintains around 60 websites for various government departments (or government-related organisations). Oh yeah, and I'm a web developer there now :D
