We have setup UMS version 5. From the manual, it said that “Set a DNS entry igelrmserver (Record Type A) or a DHCP option (224).” How about FQDN? Should we skip the FQDN?
@member I do both types… dhcp and dns entry
my question is: how to handle fqdn/enterprise domain name?
DNS suffix Will just be added to it
So example server.whatever.local . igelrmserver.whatever.local as long as it is a A record within your DNS search suffix it Will work. Dont create it as a cname/alias.
So do a nslookup, set type=any , igelrmserver and post the result here.
Example:
C:UsersGOD>nslookup
Default Server: nnws0001.plant.acme.net nnws0001.plant.acme.net
Address: x.x.x.45
> set type=any
IGELRMSERVER LOOKUP RESOLVES TO A Record:
> igelrmserver
Server: nnws0001.plant.acme.net nnws0001.plant.acme.net
Address: x.x.x.45
igelrmserver.plant.acme.net igelrmserver.plant.acme.net internet address = x.x.x.37
SERVERNAME LOOKUP RESOLVES TO CNAME:
> s1220001177
Server: nnws0001.plant.acme.net nnws0001.plant.acme.net
Address: x.x.x.45
s1220001177.plant.acme.net s1220001177.plant.acme.net canonical name = igelrmserver.plant.acme.net igelrmserver.plant.acme.net
I’m not sure that I’m remembering correctly, because this was a couple years ago, but I think that in my case, the thin clients were not getting the D.N.S. suffix search list, so we included the domain name in the D.H.C.P. option 224. (using the F.Q.D.N.).
