Title: /48 Zone remains as Incomplete?
Post by: AndrewButterworth on March 24, 2012, 03:36:27 PM
From the Hurricane Electric Free DNS Management I have activated my /64 DNS Zone but can't activate my /48.  The help says click on it and it will automatically activate it?  Is there something I am missing?

OK, emailed them and its now gone green...

I have added a host (AAAA record) but it doesn't resolve?  I am at the Enthusiast level and when I put the hostname in it says no AAAA record found.  Do I need to activate it somehow?

If you want help with that, you need to tell us what the domain name is. Otherwise we cannot see what is wrong with it.

I'm not seeing an AAAA record assigned to it


[carl@mars ~]$ host rutland-ccie.com
Host rutland-ccie.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)


You didn't try and assign an address from your tunnel /64 to it did you?

No, its from my /48 that I have subnetted down further.

2001:470:c964::/48

AAAA record:
Name = www.rutland-ccie.com
Address = 2001:470:c964:64fe:c1c0:d3b7:17af:a537
TTL = 1-hour

Is rutland-ccie.com even registered?
:~$ whois rutland-ccie.com

Whois Server Version 2.0

Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
for detailed information.

No match for "RUTLAND-CCIE.COM".

I mean, I'd hope a "CCIE" would know how to register a domain ;)

Bizarrely I have been a CCIE for 10-years and I have never registered a domain...

I thought this was part of the Free DNS service HE offered?

Registering a domain costs money.
