If I specify route for nats.io like
nats-route://ruser:T0pS3cr3t#nats.cluster1:622
nats.cluster1 - is domain in aws Route53 managed by aws/ecs/service_discovery. It may have random number of A records.
Will nats.io resolve nats.cluster1 to get a list of A records and wait TTL time to resolve again?
or will it resolve using something like gethostbyname and use that resolve ip forever ?

I am trying to add a new RDS connection for a PostgreSQL database. I am trying to follow this post to make this set up, but when trying to add the security group in the source field from inbound rules I get this message: You may not specify a referenced group id for an existing IPv4 CIDR rule. If anyone has any idea about how to solve this I would really appreciate your help.
Security group inbound rules:
Security group outbound rules:
Deleting the corresponding rule and adding the rule again with the source as the Security Group Id solved the problem. Not sure exactly why !
I'm a newbie in domain names, DNS etc.
I'm using surge.sh for deploying my app. Now I want to add a custom domain, that I registered using transIP, and I can't get it working. I set the IP address to 45.55.110.124, as they explain here. All together, I entered the following settings:
Name: *
TTL: 1 min
Type: A
Address: 45.55.110.124
And another one, exactly the same but then using name #:
Name: #
TTL: 1 min
Type: A
Address: 45.55.110.124
I created a test page that contains hello domain, inside a simple html file. Now, I deployed the page by moving to the folder that contains the html file and doing: surge ./ mydomain.io.
I waited over 5 minutes and nothing is changing.
Now, my questions are:
What am I doing wrong?
My domain provider suggests that I also use an IPv6 address, but which one should I use for Surge?
Why is there an option of setting TTL longer than 1 minute, who wants to wait longer before their deploy comes online?
For starters, you want to use the CNAME instead of A record if possible. The reason for this is that their IP address can possibly change out from under you when infrastructure changes / updates / re-deploys. If possible, remove the A records and create CNAME records pointing to na-west1.surge.sh. instead.
Next, assuming that they want you to point to the same IP as na-west1.surge.sh resolves to, that IP is different from the documentation (possible even due to my previous explanation). You can ping the domain or use the host utility to get the current IP address:
$ host na-west1.surge.sh
na-west1.surge.sh has address 138.197.235.123
Armed with this information, try changing to CNAME records first. If this isn't possible, then use the updated IP address that you get from resolving the their CNAME.
I have an email server with pmta. Someone recommended me to follow this link for IP warmup in order to not get blacklisted. I am using mailwizz with 7 IPs.
I tried to set the delivery servers via /etc/pmta/configand changing the config file by adding max-msg-rate 25/h.
I then reset /etc/init.d/pmta restart
I tried again but it is still exceeding the limit
Is there anything I did wrong?
max-msg-rate 25/h is a domain scoped directive, so you would need to apply this to each domain that you send to and <domain *>. I'm not sure about that directive specifically, but some require a reload and not a restart for the configuration change to take effect (specifically adding/changing the admin access IP for the PowerMTA web monitor).
You have to make a macro as the follow:
<domain *>
max-smtp-out 5
max-msg-per-connection 20
max-msg-rate 10000/d
bounce-after 12h
</domain>
For warming up you have to use the following delivery parameter
cold-virtual-mta [virtual-mta-here]
<domain *>
max-cold-virtual-mta-msg 1000/day
</domain>

I am trying to start a google compute engine (GCE) instance with a pre-configured FQDN. We are intending to run an application that is licensed based on the contents of /etc/hosts.
I am starting the instances using the Google Cloud SDK utility - gcloud.
I have tried setting the "hostname" key using the metadata option like so:
gcloud compute instances create mynode (standard opts) --metadata hostname=mynode.example.com
Whenever I log into the developer console, under computer, instances, I can see hostname under "Custom metadata". This appears to be a new, custome key - it has no impact on what:
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/hostname
returns.
I have also tried setting "instance/hostname" like the below, which causes a parsing error when using gcloud.
--metadata instance/hostname=mynode.example.com
I have successfully used the startup scripts functionality of the metadata server to run a startup script that parses the new, internal IP address of the newly created instance, updated /etc/hosts. This appears to work but doesn't feel "like the google way".
Can I configure the FQDN (specifically, a domain name, as the instance name is always the hostname) of an instance, during instance creation, using the metaserver functionality?
try this:
Go to your GCE >> VM instances panel.
stop your gce instance.
clic on the instance name.
Edit your instance, adding this values on Custom metadata fields:
Key field: hostname / Value field: your.server.hostname
Key field: startup-script / Value field: sudo -s hostnamectl set-hostname your.server.hostname
setup-example-image.png
Finally, start your instance and test with a hostnamectl command.
regards!
According to this article 'hostname' is part of the default metadata entries that provide information about your instance and it is NOT possible to manually edit any of the default metadata pairs. You can also take a look at this video from the Google Team. Within the first few minutes it is mentioned that you cannot modify default metadata pairs. As such, it does not seem like you can specify the hostname upon instance creation other than through the use of a start-up script like you've done already. It is also worth mentioning that the hostname you've specified will get deleted and auto-synced by the metadata server upon reboot unless you're using a start-up script or something that would modify it every time.
If what you're currently doing works for what you're trying to accomplish, it might be the only workaround to your scenario.
Here is a patch for /usr/share/google/set-hostname to set FQDN to GCE instance.
https://gist.github.com/yuki-takeichi/3080521322f0f1d159ea6a343e2323e6
Before you use this patch, you must set your desired FQDN in your instance's metadata by specifying hostname key.
Hostname is set each time instance's IP address is renewed by dhclient. set-hostname is just a hook script which dhclient executes and serves new IP address and internal hostame to, and modifies /etc/hosts. This patch changes the source of hostname by querying instance's metadata from metadata server.
The original set-hostname script is here:
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/compute-image-packages/blob/master/google_config/bin/set_hostname.
Use this patch at your own risk.
When creating a VM, you can specify a custom FQDN hostname as an optional parameter. This feature is currently in Beta.
$ gcloud beta compute instances create INSTANCE_NAME --hostname example.hostname
This should work across OSes, and eliminate the need for workaround scripts.
More info in the docs.

I've looked throughout this site to find answered questions and found a few things that work but with a couple solutions combined. This thread seems the place to answer.
1) echo example.com > /etc/hostname
2) add -- 127.0.1.1 example.com in /etc/hosts
3) add -- hostnamectl set-hostname
example.com -- command to /etc/rc.local script
4) uncomment /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf line:
supersede domain-name "example.com";
5) profit.... Seems to stick after each reboot
(Note example.com is your domain name: fqdndomain.com - yourfqdndomain.org)
Also note this is for Ubuntu or Debian. Other Unix May slightly vary. I've tested this on Ubuntu 16.04
Always on the wording NOT possible to manually edit any of the default metadata pairs, how about the instant level default metadata "/scheduling"? we could set them manually as mentioned in this article
In my current code base, when i create a VM, DNS name is being dynamically set as same as the instance name. For example, consider if my VM name is "anandInstance", DNS name of the name is being generated as "anandInstance.cloudapp.net". Is there a way to change the DNS name like "dns1.cloudapp.net" during the creation thru REST API??
"Connect to existing VM" , is it possible to achieve this option through REST call? In case "connect to existing.." option , we are getting a list of vms/services to choose and VM is getting created successfully. How to achieve the same using API.
Thanks

I don't think it is possible. Imagine what a nightmare in the portal would become if you were able to do so? How would you link a Cloud Service (whatever.cloudapp.net) to an actual deployment (MyDemoVm123). However you can use your own domain and have CNAME records pointing to your "want-to-change-for-some-reason.cloudapp.net" (frankly I surely think that soon we will use even longer names)
"Connect to existing VM" , is it possible to achieve this option
through REST call?
Connection to a VM is essentially opening a RDP session. If it a windows VM, you can try using the Download RDP file API call. Once you get the file, just start it with "process.start". If it is linux VM, just start SSH client on port 22 (or one you have defined) from the Cloud Service DNS name you have.
UPDATE
From the azure portal,for stand alone machineoption, we are able to give the dns name with deafult cloudoneapp.net. How to do the same
through the rest api call.any specfic paramter is there to specify the
same?
When you are using the REST API, you first create a Cloud Service (still named hosted service in the REST API) where your machine will be hosted. Here you give the name for that hosted service (the dns name with deafult cloudoneapp.net). Then you call the Create Virtual Machine Deployment API action.
In case "connect to existing.." option , we are getting a list of vms/services to choose and VM is getting created successfully. How to
achieve the same using API.
When you want to get list of all VMs, just get a list of all Hosted Services, then get properties of each and make a guess whether it is a VM or a Cloud Service (maybe by querying for Properties of each service). I don't see a direct access to the list of Virtual Machines. But as this feature being PREVIEW, things might change in the future.
Hope my answer is clear?
