Editing NetHere (section)

==== Adding DNS IP entries ====



1) Create the forward and reverse DNS records via NH script (zone_generate) for a netblock, will create /tmp/customer.forward and /tmp/customer.reverse files to be read
  a) /nethere/sbin/zone_generate -h for usage
    i.e. for netblock a.b.c, starting IP d, ending IP z
     # zone_generate -n a.b.c -b d -e z -p customer

2) Checkout, edit the IP in-addr.arpa zone file, reload the zone
  a) # co -l a.b.c
  b) Seach for the nearest netblock area for the domain, follow format for customer info, read in the /tmp/abbrev.rdns file accordingly, increase Serial for zone in YYYYMMDD## format
     e.g.
