Centos 5 DNS works for me: Re: new CentOS 5 as DNS server

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I want to share my DNS experience.

htt-consult.com
labs.htt-consult.com

and a couple test sub zones, are being served from this box.

I installed EVERYTHING that bespoke of BIND, well almost everything. I wanted to make sure I had any file I might need.

[log]#grep bind rpmpkgs

bind-9.3.3-9.0.1.el5.i386.rpm
bind-chroot-9.3.3-9.0.1.el5.i386.rpm
bind-libs-9.3.3-9.0.1.el5.i386.rpm
bind-utils-9.3.3-9.0.1.el5.i386.rpm
system-config-bind-4.0.3-2.el5.centos.noarch.rpm

{log]# grep bind yum.log
Aug 03 18:00:20 Updated: bind-libs.i386 30:9.3.3-9.0.1.el5
Aug 03 18:01:07 Updated: bind.i386 30:9.3.3-9.0.1.el5
Aug 03 18:04:47 Updated: bind-utils.i386 30:9.3.3-9.0.1.el5
Aug 03 18:04:48 Updated: bind-chroot.i386 30:9.3.3-9.0.1.el5

Then I went to work in the following directories:

/var/named/chroot/ etc and var/named

I have determined that you can forget about any named.whatever file in /etc/ as the chroot is really what is run.

Here is my /var/named/chroot/etc (I have 2 views, external and internal):

named.rfc1912.zones (to find this and others, remember updatedb and locate are your friends)
named.acl
named.external
named.root <- wget ftp://ftp.rs.internic.net/domain/named.root
named.root.hints
named.caching-nameserver.conf <- not used, but what the heck...
named.internal
named.conf
rndc.key

Here is some of my /var/named/chroot/var/named files:

named.broadcast
named.ip6.local
named.local
named.zero
localdomain.zone
localhost.zone
Plus all of my specific zone and reverse files, both internal and external views.

Once I got this all built, I have had no trouble maintaning this with webmin.

I think this covers everything.

Happy BINDings!
