Subject: Question about dynamic DNS (BIND 8 EOL: OpenBSD Makes It Easy)
Date: Tuesday, September 4, 2007 - 4:13 pm

I read the article on undeadly and a question came up.


dhcpd in base install does not support dynamic DNS (which is modern I

guess) so I followed this guide to configure a 4.0 box to support it

http://www.bsdguides.org/guides/openbsd/networking/dynamic_dns_dhcp.php


But the following seems wrong to me:

cd /usr/sbin

mkdir isc-dhcp-2.0

mv dhcpd isc-dhcp-2.0/

mv /usr/local/sbin/dhcpd dhcpd


Because it breaks the rule of packages being outside of the base

install. So, what is the correct way to do it? I'm going to upgrade 4.0

to 4.2 when it releases so I actually am looking for information on this.


Or, is nobody using dynamic DNS for some reason?

Thanks for any advise about this.
