hello forum

at the moment i think i have a working rdns setup but when i go through the steps of the certification
the step after the ipv6 email verification fails on rdns for the mail server
if i check it myself manually all seems well
am i missing something here?
regards

What is the address of your mail server?

[digidoc]

mx1.digi.nl 2001:470:1f15:109f::5

[cholzhauer]

That doesn't show as being a mail server for your domain

The MX records listed don't have IPv6 addresses.

RDNS looks correct though

Code: [Select]


[carl@mars ~]$ host mx1.digi.nl

[digidoc]

I used hoyte@hoyte.nl for the successful ipv6 email cert test
all names/numbers involved in dns seem ok
any suggestions?
regards
hoyte

imac:bin root# dig hoyte.nl mx +short
10 mx1.digi.nl.

imac:bin root# dig mx1.digi.nl aaaa +short

imac:bin root# dig -x 2001:470:1f15:109f::5 +short
mx1.digi.nl.

[cholzhauer]

I guess I'm confused then...you've already passed the email test?  Which test are you working on now? RDNS?

HE doesn't know about any of your stuff though

Code: [Select]

[carl@mars ~]$ dig -x 2001:470:1f15:109f::5 +short @ns2.he.net
[carl@mars ~]$
[carl@mars ~]$ dig mx1.digi.nl aaaa +short @ns2.he.net
[carl@mars ~]$
[carl@mars ~]$ dig hoyte.nl mx +short @ns2.he.net
[carl@mars ~]$


[digidoc]

mmhh
strange that the he servers have not picked up on my servers
do you think they need AXFR access?
anyway, in certification i am now at the step which has the following text:

Professional
Congratulations, you are an IPv6 Administrator! The next step after getting your IPv6 Email working is to setup Reverse DNS for the mail server's IP. What you will need is:

    * An IPv6 enabled mail system, with working RDNS.

Step    Description    Data
1    Check if your mail server has working rDNS

if i push the button i get:

Your MX does not appear to have working RDNS

regards,
hoyte

[digidoc]

if i check that ns2.he.net server for the glue records towards the reverse zone they appear to be there:

imac:bin root# dig @ns2.he.net. f.9.0.1.5.1.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ns +short
ns2.digi.nl.
ns3.digi.nl.
ns1.digi.nl.

and all my servers resolve the ipv6 address of mx1.digi.nl correctly:

imac:bin root# dig @ns1.digi.nl. 5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.f.9.0.1.5.1.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr +short
mx1.digi.nl.
imac:bin root# dig @ns2.digi.nl. 5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.f.9.0.1.5.1.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr +short
mx1.digi.nl.
imac:bin root# dig @ns3.digi.nl. 5.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.f.9.0.1.5.1.f.1.0.7.4.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. ptr +short
mx1.digi.nl.

How long ago did you make the DNS changes?  It's possible that the changes have not propagated yet.  If it's been a while, you might need to email IPv6@he.net so they can kick their servers into working

[digidoc]

response to cholzhauer
this was all setup yesterday with ttl of 1h so should have gotten through
i will mail ipv6@he.net about it
if i query the he2 server it does redirect to my nameservers though for reverse lookups of that range
maybe the certification software is using old cache entries or something

response to kriteknetworks
the email domain used in the cert test was hoyte.nl which uses mx1.digi.nl for mail exchanger
(seel previous posts for dig listings)

reponse to both
i really appreciate the effort this forum makes to help me in these early steps
thx!

hoyte

Hello,
I have a similar problem - after reading a "Your MX does not appear to have working RDNS " message, I tried and successfully used only IPv6 to send and receive a test-mail (I used this facility, and checked my logs to confirm it was an IPv6 connection), yet the test returns the message as if the mail-server has no working RDNS. The domain is bluug.org. Is it the same problem, or am I missing something specific to my set-up?

17.03.2011. edit: sorry, it was a Bind misconfiguration problem. All well now.

The SOA record is incorrect.  The first data field needs to be a name server, not the zone itself.
