[Debian-sf-users] DNS and SSH problems after installation.

[Paul Sorensen]

Hi, 

Sorry for the long-winded question, but here it goes...

I've installed debian-sourceforge (2.5-29) on a server in my group and
have a few DNS and ssh related questions to help me get it working.  

First some background: We are starting small, so all of our sourceforge
services (shell, cvs, lists, etc) will be implemented on a single
server.  Also, since the server is part of a larger network, DNS is
handled by a separate server.

Now, say my domain is "mygroup.myorg", the debian box containing the
sourceforge instance is "sf.mygroup.myorg".  

Question 1. What kind of DNS setup would I setup in this instance?  Do I
run named locally and create a relationship with the larger name server?

Question 2. The dns scripts seem to fail because they seems to assume
that "shell1.sf.mygroup.myorg" exists.  I know this because the
following appears at the end of the /var/lib/sourceforge/bind/dns.zone
each time it is generated:

; *** From here out is auto-generated ***
; Could not get ip for shell1.sf
; Could not get ip for shell1.sf

Do I need to create some kind of alias to "sf.mygroup.myorg"?

Question 3. Also, there is already an sshd running on
"sf.mygroup.myorg", but sourceforge seems to have setup a chroot-jail
environment - do I need a second instance of sshd to listen for this
(hopefully somehow connected to "shell1.sf.mygroup.myorg")?

Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can give me.
