RE: dnsreg installation

["Dugan, Darin D [EIT]" <dddugan (at) iastate.edu>]

For my environment I just run the dnsreg script from the hobbit user's cron once a day:
(still running an older version using hobbit/bb naming conventions)
0 6 * * *       /home/hobbit/server/bin/bbcmd --env=/home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg /home/hobbit/server/ext/dnsreg

Then just include the 'dnsreg' tag where appropriate in bb-hosts like:

page dnsreg DNS Registrations
0.0.0.0         domain1.org           # noconn dnsreg
0.0.0.0         domain2.info         # noconn dnsreg

I also made two slight modifications to the script it seems. One is to the sed portion of the EXPIRESTRING command so the date would parse correctly, and the other is just to add a short sleep at the end of the loop to avoid the whois server from getting annoyed with me.

Cheers.

Hi,

I see one post on this, but it was modified by the user.
I want to know how could I get it work. On xymon.com, it only show the script, I have done this part.
I have also add in hobbitlaunch.cfg the part for dnsreg for each 5 min to verified if it work, after I want change it to 1day.

But nothing appear. I have restart server few time.
Maybe I do something wrong.

Thx in advance to help me.
