[Ldapdns-users] What a mess!!!

[<fde...@ub...>]

Hi everybody, I'm new to the list as you can figure out. My english is
not very good but I'll do what I can. Let's see, I've read some books
and documentation about LDAP and DNS and now that I'm trying to build my
zone on ldif format I have many doubts. I'm running a Gentoo box with
ldapdns-2.0.5. My goal is to manage a dns zone called ere.ub.edu. The
net is type C. Besides that, in the directory I'll put samba and unix
accounts and more data, so I wonder if I can have dns information in an
ou like ou=dns,dc=ere,dc=ub,dc=edu to have a tidy directory (suggestions
are welcome). The LDAP server is in the same machine and let's suppose
its IP is a.b.c.d. The ldapdns-conf command will look like this?:
#ldapdns-conf root fernando /var/ldapdns a.b.c.d 127.0.0.1 ere.ub.edu
'ou=dns,dc=ere,dc=ub,dc=edu'
I don't know what "acct" and "logacct" mean exactly, can you explain it
or tell me where to search about it? (I've read all the ldapdns
documentation, I'm serious).
Well, let's suppose all the daemontools stuff is done, I'll manage. If
I'm not wrong ldapdns relies on the cosine schema, more accurately it
expects to find dNSDomain object classes but... where do I put the
reverse zones and root servers addresses? With the current configuration
I think the ere.ub.edu zone's hosts will map to the
ou=dns,dc=ere,dc=ub,dc=edu container's entries being the name the dc
attribute and the ip address the ARecord. NSRecords I suppose have to be
the the same way but I've read something like you don't need SOA records
with ldapdns. I don't understand that. I'm not sure if I'm right with
all these but if someone could post a sample of a ldif dump of his zone
and reverse zone I think I could figure it out better.
I'm sorry if I ask a lot but I was about setting up a BIND server and
Openldap server at the same time when I discovered ldapdns, I'd like to
run it to make profit of the directory. Thanks a lot.
