Setup dns-update with simple DNS

RouterOS General
1

I am running a simple DNS server. Inside Simple DNS we can allow dynamic updates via a key-name and key-value. In the RouterOS there is the “tools → dns-update”… I created a key-name and key-value on my DNS server and it doesn’t seem to like it, I keep getting the “bad key” error.. I have copy an pasted the key-value 4 or 5 time with different keys and non of them work…

Here is my command:

dns-update dns-server=“10.0.0.6” address=“10.0.0.10” key-name=“username” key=“oV7YagF3NAZsCgUX/d1s9Q==” name=test zone=internal.local

error msg: bad key

I know it is getting to the server because if I change the “dns-server” ip I get “connection timeout” error.

Has anyone successfully done this?

Thanks…

are the times synced ?

Yes, they are within 1/2 a second of each other. Why does that matter?
