I already have installed bind through webmin, it is a newer version, just by a 
couple revisions but the ubuntu one wont update any more 
its BIND version 9.8.2
I can manually add the slave zone and test the transfer it updates from the 
master, I just assumed I should be able to add it as another slave and have it 
populate all the way

  You need a named.conf that defines the slave zones and the IP address of the 
master.

  But first step is to download/compile/install the latest version of BIND, 
it’s actually quite easy.  I doubt you can get the version you want via yum 
update because CentOS is based on RHEL which is always a few steps behind.  
Given the DNS attacks, you want the latest BIND.  You might then want to lock 
out the package from being updated by yum.

  So Im at a new Centos with webmin fresh bind install. 
  We have one master, one slave server
  I have never set up bind, this was done before me.
  If I were to take down the old slave server and bring this one up on its IP 
will the master update this one, or is there a config I need to move over. Im 
more comfotable doing the slave first.
  These are all webmin, but the original is ubuntu and the new is centos

    I always install CentOS bare bones …. “minimal server” is what the 
installation will call it.  This way you can install whatever you like after 
installation and not worry about removing many dozen packages you don’t need…



    Just my preference anyways….

    2 questions in this

    1. when running through the current centos installation, what do i select 
for the server type, for powercode it says select basic server

    2. is there a guide for building dedicated centos servers based on server 
purpose? I assume there are packages I dont need to install if its only got 
this purpose

      CentOS+BIND+Webmin J  I can’t remember but Usermin might be the part 
you’re looking for specific to users updating their own DNS…..

      Is there a good, simple package for locally hosted DNS Servers for people 
like me who dont want to get too far into managing the linux at a granular 
level? we are used to the webmin interface. It would be nice if it had the 
option to set up client accounts for some clients to manage their own DNS but 
not view others, but thats in no way a deal breaker
