DNS FOR 10.3 QUESTION

[bustthis]

i followed your article about setting up dns under 10.2 for my server running 10.3, all seems to work… i think, but i see something that troubles me in the server admin under afp connections.

my server is named server.charles-x.com – 10.0.1.201
dual 1 ghz g4 is workstation1.charles-x.com – 10.0.1.3
tibook is workstation2.charles-x.com – 10.0.1.4

under afp connections it shows me(workstation1) as being server.charles-x.com – in the logs it shows me logged in as 10.0.1.201?

workstation2 seems to be connected and displayed right as 10.0.1.4

what did i do wrong? i hope you can understand this 🙂

mostly used your examples and i plan to change them a little, i didn’t expect it to work

after bugging joel… he suggested to turn off “allow secure connections” under afp settings in server admin, and sure enough that did the job. thanks again for all your help 🙂
