DNS hosting service

A DNS hosting service is a service that runs Domain Name System servers. Most, but not all, domain name registrars include DNS hosting service with registration. Free DNS hosting services also exist. Almost all DNS hosting services are "shared"; except for the most popular Internet sites, there is no need to dedicate a server to hosting DNS for a single website. Many third-party DNS hosting services provide Dynamic DNS.

DNS hosting service is better when the provider has multiple servers in various geographic locations that minimize latency for clients around the world.

DNS can also be self-hosted by running DNS software on generic Internet hosting services.

Dynamic DNS and NAT

There has been tremendous growth in the use of Network Address Translation (NAT) functionality. These devices include Windows machines running Internet Connection Sharing, included in Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP, or other similar software such as Sygate Home Network. NAT software is also included in most open-source operating systems such as Linux (IP masquerading) or FreeBSD (natd), and is available for other platforms, such as Vicomsoft's Internet Gateway for Macs. More recently, we have seen hardware devices, often referred to as "routers", implementing NAT functionality, such as the Linksys routers, the Netgear Internet Gateway Routers, or the Nexland ISB line.

Many users of various NAT implementations then wonder if it is still possible to use dynamic DNS technology, as implemented in our Dynamic DNS and Custom DNS services, when using NAT. By itself, NAT does not affect dynamic DNS that much, but it does have significant impact on the operation of servers, which is the primary motive for the use of dynamic DNS technology. This white paper will discuss these issues and, whenever possible, make recommendations as to how they can be dealt with. Please note that we do not endorse or provide support for any third-party products that may be mentioned in this article. Also, please note that our discussion of NAT will be limited to the type of NAT where one or more private IPs are converted to one public IP: there are other types of NAT out there, but they are not commonly used in the residential, home office, or small business market.

There are two main challenges involved with using NAT and operating servers with the help of dynamic DNS: ensuring that traffic actually makes it through the NAT and then ensuring that the dynamic DNS hostname/domain is properly updated.

The Structure of a Domain Name

A domain name always has two or more parts separated by dots and typically consists of some form of an organization's name and a three letter or more suffix. For example, the domain name for IBM is "ibm.com"; the United Nations is "un.org."

The domain name suffix is known as a generic top-level domain (gTLD) and it describes the type of organization. However in the last few years, the lines have blurred somewhat between these categories. Currently in use of these gTLDs:
aero--For the air-transport industry

.biz--Reserved for businesses

.com--For businesses, commercial enterprises, or online services like America Online. Most companies use this extension.

.coop--Reserved for cooperatives

.edu--For educational institutions and universities

.gov--Reserved for United States government agencies

.info--For all uses

.int--For organizations established by international treaties

.mil--For the United States military

.museum--For use by museums

.name--For use by individuals

.net--For networks; usually reserved for organizations such as Internet service providers

.org--For non-commercial organizations

.pro--For use by professionals, such as attorneys and physicians

ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, manages the Domain Name System. For the latest news, visit the ICANN website. The more popular TLDs (.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .name) are available to the general public for registration of domain names.

Windows Server 2003

Windows Server 2003 (also referred to as Win2K3) is a server operating system produced by Microsoft. Introduced on April 24, 2003 as the successor to Windows 2000 Server, it is considered by Microsoft to be the cornerstone of their Windows Server System line of business server products. An updated version, Windows Server 2003 R2 was released to manufacturing on 6 December 2005. Its successor, Windows Server 2008, was released on February 4, 2008.

Released on April 24, 2003, Windows Server 2003 (which carries the version number 5.2) is the follow-up to Windows 2000 Server, incorporating compatibility and other features from Windows XP. Unlike Windows 2000 Server, Windows Server 2003's default installation has none of the server components enabled, to reduce the attack surface of new machines. Windows Server 2003 includes compatibility modes to allow older applications to run with greater stability. It was made more compatible with Windows NT 4.0 domain-based networking. Incorporating and upgrading a Windows NT 4.0 domain to Windows 2000 was considered difficult and time-consuming, and generally was considered an all-or-nothing upgrade, particularly when dealing with Active Directory. Windows Server 2003 brought in enhanced Active Directory compatibility, and better deployment support, to ease the transition from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Professional.

Changes to various services include those to the IIS web server, which was almost completely rewritten to improve performance and security, Distributed File System, which now supports hosting multiple DFS roots on a single server, Terminal Server, Active Directory, Print Server, and a number of other areas. Windows Server 2003 was also the first operating system released by Microsoft after the announcement of their Trustworthy Computing initiative, and as a result, contains a number of changes to security defaults and practices.

The product went through several name changes during the course of development. When first announced in 2000, it was known by its codename, "Whistler Server"; it was then named "Windows 2002 Server" for a brief time in mid-2001, before being renamed "Windows .NET Server" as part of Microsoft's effort to promote their new integrated enterprise and development framework, Microsoft .NET. It was later renamed to "Windows .NET Server 2003". Due to fears of confusing the market about what ".NET" represents and responding to criticism, Microsoft removed .NET from the name during the Release Candidate stage in late-2002. This allowed the name .NET to exclusively apply to the .NET Framework, as previously it had appeared that .NET was just a tag for a generation of Microsoft products.

Microsoft Domain Name System (MDNS)

Microsoft DNS is the name given to the implementation of domain name system services provided in Microsoft Windows operating systems.

The Domain Name System support in Microsoft Windows NT, and thus its derivatives Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003, comprises two clients and a server. Every Microsoft Windows machine has a DNS lookup client, to perform ordinary DNS lookups. Some machines have a Dynamic DNS Update client, to perform Dynamic DNS Update transactions, registering the machines' names and IP addresses. Some machines run a DNS server, to publish DNS data, to service DNS lookup requests from DNS lookup clients, and to service DNS update requests from DNS update clients.

The server software is only supplied with the server versions of Windows. I want to share my experience with DDNS and Computer Help.

DNS hosting service

Dynamic DNS is a service that runs Domain Name System servers. Most, but not all, domain name registrars include DNS hosting service with registration. Free DNS hosting services also exist. Almost all DNS hosting services are "shared"; except for the most popular Internet sites, there is no need to dedicate a server to hosting DNS for a single website. Many third-party DNS hosting services provide Dynamic DNS and Computer Technical Support.

DNS hosting service is better when the provider has multiple servers in various geographic locations that minimize latency for clients around the world.

DNS can also be self-hosted by running DNS software on generic Internet hosting service

Free DNS

A number of sites offer free DNS hosting, either for second level domains registered with registrars which do not offer free (or sufficiently flexible) DNS service, or as third level domains (selection.somedomain.com). These services generally also offer Dynamic DNS. In many cases the free services can be upgraded with various premium services

Configuring Logging for the DNS Server

There are several categories that log messages fall in to. For instance, all queries fall in to the "queries" category, all notify messages will fall in to the "notify" category, and so on. We are interested in the "dnssec", the "update" and the "security" categories.

The messages for every category are channeled into files or through syslog. The channel phrase can be used to specify which severity level should be logged, how the format of the log message should be, what extra information should be logged, where it should be logged, how many versions should be kept, and how large the zone file may grow.

For this setup we will log all above categories in one place:

logging {
    category dnssec   { security_log; };
    category update   { security_log; };
    category security { security_log; };
 
    channel security_log {
        file "dns-security.log" versions 5 size 20m;
            // every time the log grows over 20 Mbyte, it will
            // backup and rollover. Maximum 5 backups will be kept.
        print-time yes;
        print-category yes;
        print-severity yes;
        severity info;
    };
};

This Blogs Help to work with Dynamic DNS. I want to share here with you is my experience of sharing the DNS Server Configuration and providing a computer support assistance. The most common use for this is in allowing an Internet domain name to be assigned to a computer help with a varying (dynamic) IP address
