Re: [9front] non-9front dhcp server -> /lib/ndb/local ignored?

[arisawa <arisawa@ar.aichi-u.ac.jp>]

hello,

sorry if I misunderstand what you said.

I have cpu server and auth server which I want to use from both home and internet.
those names are:
(1) hebe (or hebe.local) in home and hebe.nyx.link from internet
(2) grid (or grid.local) in home and grid.nyx.link form internet

I have plan9 terminal on virtualbox on macbook.
that is, I use the terminal in two types of environment.
(a) local wifi in my home with plan9 based DHCP and DNS.
(b) mobile router wifi with mobile ISP based DHCP and DNS.

of course we need fqdn in accessing from internet.
however /lib/ndb/local is not ignored.

the relevant parts of /lib/ndb/local of the terminals and servers are like this:

dom=nyx.link
	auth=hebe.nyx.link

dom=local soa=
	refresh=3600 ttl=3600
	ns=hebe.loca
	auth=hebe

ipnet=local ip=192.168.0.0 ipmask=255.255.255.0
	ipgw=192.168.0.1
	proto=tcp
	ntp=ntp.jst.mfeed.ad.jp
	auth=hebe
	fs=hebe
	dns=hebe
	dnsdomain=local

[snip]

sys=hebe
	dom=hebe.local
	ether=6805ca0a0bf2
	ip=192.168.0.6
	ip=2402:6b00:22cd:bf80::6

sys=grid
	dom=grid.local
	ether=74d435876245
	ip=192.168.0.9
	ip=2402:6b00:22cd:bf80::9
	bootf=/amd64/9bootpxe		# 9front
