Stalling slave transfers

2013-05-08 Thread Tom Sommer

Hi,

I have a problem with one of 3 slave servers, all set up the exact same 
way, with the exact same bind version and configuration.


One slave has a problem transfering zones from the master.

The logfiles are flooded with received notify for zone .. refresh in 
progress, refresh check queued lines and rndc status returns a 
constant high number of soa queries in progress.
After a few hours the zones are transfers, so the connection to the 
master is working, but there is a major delay. I tried resetting the 
slave and transfering ALL slave zones again, which worked fine 
instantly. The problem still appeared again after a few hours though.


The master has three network-paths, one on external IP, one on internal 
IP and one on IPv6. All 3 paths work fine, because the transfers happen 
after an hour or so.


There is no hints in the master's log.
The other two slaves are running perfectly, no errors or delays what so 
ever.


Bind version 9.9.2-P2 (recently upgraded to).

Any hints would be appreciated, as I feel like I've exhausted most 
options.


Thank you.

I sent them the RFC yesterday and even sent them the KB article from

amazing how large hosts take proper DNS administration for granted these days.

I don't have time to teach them how to do this anymore, so unfortunately I 
think I'm going to throw in the towel and just have them create the PTR records 
for me...right now I just need them to resolve!

Thanks everyone for your input. I will reference this thread for them in the 
next few weeks if I'm able to fine someone able to make the proper changes.

You are (probably) under two misapprehensions. First, dig does not use
the search path by default - you have to use the +search option for that.
See the man page.

Secondly, +trace always goes to the root nameservers and works its way
down from there. That's what it is intended for - it's not some sort
of debugging option as you seem to think. The only thing it uses the
nameservers specified in resolv.conf, or by an @ option, for is to look
up the nameservers for . to get it started.

It isn't actually useful to combine +trace and +search - dig could start
all over again with the search path(s) added after a negative result,
but it doesn't.

architecture question

2013-05-08 Thread Jeremy P
I am building a lab environment where there are several separate domains,
all of them ending in .local

I've setup a server for the .local TLD, but I'm undecided (or perhaps
ignorant) as to the best way to have the individual domains (domain1.local,
domain2.local, etc) refer to the local zone on my TLD server.  Currently
I've also created a root server and set the root hints on domain1.local's
dns server to refer to it.  This works for local resolution, but this means
that domain1.local can't perform Internet lookups.

 dig myhost

By default dig only uses fully qualified domain names. dig +search
does what you want.

 It would search for that host in path1 or path2 listed above.? It does
 not, a +trace shows the resolver querying the root servers for myhost.?
 So it appears the search command does not work in environment.
 
 [root@server1 # dig myhost +trace

...but dig +trace behaves completely differently, searching for the
name from the root zone down and never touching the local resolver at
all, so this would have queried the root server even if you'd used a
FQDN.

You probably want to use host myhost, that does use the resolv.conf as
the system normally would. And it works better than nslookup.

Enable recursion on your .local TLD server and point the domain1.local
server to that server for DNS. Recursion will handle any internet
queries and as .local is authoritative it will provide responses when
queried.

Understood.  This is an isolated lab full of openBSD boxes, so I'm not too

I will switch to something more out there in the future.  I take it that
.lan is safe?

Why, Are the settings wrong?

I have used and later run lists for years, and supported Listserv(tm) 
servers for others for most of those years.  There is no right or wrong 
for the reply settings.  It's really a personal preference of the list 
owner as to how replies should be handled.  If the message should go back 
to the list, use reply all.  That's supported by all the major mail 
clients.

Subject tagging is another preference item - no right or wrong.  I have my 
mail client filter on the sender moving list traffic into the appropriate 
folder.  Works just as well as filtering on the tag.

You could ask your institution for a subdomain to be reserved from their domain?

.lan isn't AFAIK reserved for anything or in the process of being
considered by ICANN.
.test is reserved and will never be advertised on the internet (as are
.example, .invalid and .localhost)

You could also make a sub domain of your main domain and use that for
all students, unless of course the purpose is to teach how to set this up.

slight ironyI have used .home my self, now I would take something that
nobody would ever think of using in the real world, in old days I did
consider .xxx, that is now a whole other thing than just something odd.
Generally you may want to consider the new options for people to make
actual TLDs to be their company name.

At the start of the course, you could make a draw among the students and
use the selected persons first name, that any coming thing like mdsn
would use that is not very likely. It also draws attention to the
significance of those letters./slight irony

I'd argue the settings are already correct. Having the mailing

Generally, we recommend that you register DNS names for internal and

it's also mildly humorous that they used to quite religiously endorse .local, in some 
documents even categorizing use of the same domain name on an internal and external 
network as a security risk.

Hi,

I have a problem with one of 3 slave servers, all set up the exact same
way, with the exact same bind version and configuration.

One slave has a problem transfering zones from the master.

The logfiles are flooded with received notify for zone .. refresh in
progress, refresh check queued lines and rndc status returns a
constant high number of soa queries in progress.
After a few hours the zones are transfers, so the connection to the
master is working, but there is a major delay. I tried resetting the
slave and transfering ALL slave zones again, which worked fine
instantly. The problem still appeared again after a few hours though.

The master has three network-paths, one on external IP, one on internal
IP and one on IPv6. All 3 paths work fine, because the transfers happen
after an hour or so.

There is no hints in the master's log.
The other two slaves are running perfectly, no errors or delays what so
ever.

Bind version 9.9.2-P2 (recently upgraded to).

Any hints would be appreciated, as I feel like I've exhausted most options.

Thank you.

Have a look at this KB article (you'll need to register to view - but
registration is open to all):

https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-00726/30/Tuning-your-BIND-configuration-effectively-for-zone-transfers-particularly-with-many-frequently-updated-zones.html

Also - and this isn't covered in that article (yet) - if you're using
views, then use-alt-transfer-source defaults to 'yes'.  You might want
to set it explicitly to 'no' or to define alt-transfer-source
and/or alt-transfer-source-v6.

Thank you, great resource. I think I solved it with raising 
serial-query-limit, it's just odd that it's not required on the other 
two servers.


Another issue has arisen now though, the logfile is filled with lots of
named[5596]: zone example.com/IN: refresh: failure trying master 
1.2.3.4#53 (source 0.0.0.0#0): operation canceled


But if I do a dig example.com @1.2.3.4 it's working just fine. Same 
server as with the previous issue.


Any thoughts? Thank you.

well, the thing is, in reality, there is almost *never* not an actual domain name [or subdomain] 
which is applicable.  surely the organization has a domain name, within which there is plenty of 
latitude for various subdomains, to accommodate a given need.  that's kind of the whole entire 
point of how dns was designed to begin with.  even if formally sanctioned subdomains aren't 
available [e.g. non-technical issues], there's nothing at all stopping you from unilaterally 
inventing your own pretend subdomain to use for such things [effectively just the same as you'd do 
by inventing your own pretend tld - but without the potential for upstream collision].  
doing that involves little more than a modicum of effort towards avoiding collisions with other 
existing [or potentially existing] subdomains, but that's of course relatively trivial.  not only 
that, in an environment in which the goal is presumably instruction and learning, what better 
approach to take than actual particip
ation in
 
namespace?


all of that being said, i think you'll find the unspoken [and quite informal] 
consensus is that either the .site or .internal tld are tolerable for such use 
- but to reiterate my soliloquy above - why bother, when you probably don't 
need to?

BIND Configuration

2013-05-08 Thread Ward, Mike S
Hello all, I was wondering if someone could me out. 

I am using Bind 9.2 on a Redhat Linux server. We have two ISPS on separate 
networks Lets call them A and B. My Linux Server can listen on A's Network as 
well as B's network.
I'm using fictitious IPs and names

A 111.111.111.1  B 555.555.555.1
Secondary A 111.111.222.1

  Redhat  Bind

Bind is listening on both IP addresses and we have a secondary server at 
111.111.222.1


If A the ISP has a backbone router problem how can I get people trying to get 
to our web servers to use B's network? I have been think of different ways to 
do this, but have come up empty.

Our network is really simple I just want to be able to use diverse ISPS in case 
we lose one we still have the other. Can anyone help me out. Any help 
appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: architecture question

2013-05-08 Thread Lawrence K. Chen, P.Eng.
Years ago we decided to create a private TLD of .campus 

What we did was make all our caching nameservers also be authoritative for this 
private TLD. And, this worksexcept for delegated subdomains, which are 
handled through using forwarding zones. 

later when the needed to be able to get real certificates for the systems, we 
went to split DNS -- for a number of subdomains, with .campus becoming 
campus.ksu.edu -- which has caused all sorts of problems... 

When we went split, all the names in .campus were copied over (minus their 
subdomain). And, it was decided that no more new hosts in .campus (except for 
the subdomains delegated to ADS - ads.campus  users.campus - and the subdomin 
for network devices - net.campus) 

Used to be iso systems were in the as.ksu.edu subdomain, so later then got 
hosts in the as.campus subdomainbut shortly after the creating of .campus, 
we went to functional hostnaming servers used to have theme names, like 
hawkeye, radar, klingeror eagle, hawk, falcon this switched to iso-xxx 
type names. 

So iso-xxx.as.campus became iso-xxx.campus.ksu.edu 

We tried to make .campus go away, (which would've helped the search problem, 
since as.campus, cc.campus, foo.campus would compress into just 
campus.ksu.edu), but there are systems that would require the application to be 
reinstalled from scratch to make the change. 

Just like there's no more cns department, but our netbackup server was 
installed with a cns subdomain name. And, just about every resolv.conf has 6 
entries in its search. Something about Oracle stuff needs search to have all 
the subdomains in it. So, along will come a request to add another entry to 
search (the big reason is the upgrades from Oracle 10 to 11 and needing those 
CRS ipswhich can't be in the same .campus domain as the rest of the 
system so need to add new subdomain to the list. 

Somebody will see cns.ksu.edu and say that hasn't been around for 
yearsremove that. And, then suddenly Oracle RMAN backups start failing 

- Original Message -

 I am building a lab environment where there are several separate
 domains, all of them ending in .local

 I've setup a server for the .local TLD, but I'm undecided (or perhaps
 ignorant) as to the best way to have the individual domains
 (domain1.local, domain2.local, etc) refer to the local zone on my
 TLD server. Currently I've also created a root server and set the
 root hints on domain1.local's dns server to refer to it. This works
 for local resolution, but this means that domain1.local can't
 perform Internet lookups.

You will need to have some form of automation in place to update the
DNS zone to change the IP address which should now be accessed when
one of the links goes down. You will also need to ensure you have a
low TTL value on the records you want to update on link change so that
the records are refreshed quickly.

That's kind of how we do our DR...

I have things scripted so that every update to our zone, results two versions 
of the zone file...the master server signs the first one and does its usual 
notifies, then the master signs the second and its scp'd to secondaries in 
another network.

In the event we lose our connectivitywe can direct the remote slave to take

 You will need to have some form of automation in place to update the
 DNS zone to change the IP address which should now be accessed when
 one of the links goes down. You will also need to ensure you have a
 low TTL value on the records you want to update on link change so
 that
 the records are refreshed quickly.

  Bind is listening on both IP addresses and we have a secondary

  If A the ISP has a backbone router problem how can I get people

  think of different ways to do this, but have come up empty.
 
  Our network is really simple I just want to be able to use diverse
  ISPS in case we lose one we still have the other. Can anyone help
  me out. Any help appreciated.
 
  Thanks.

Subject: Re: architecture question

It would be a waste of money as their systems never leave the local
network, except through a NAT connection.

Godaddy is selling .coms for $0.99 right now (US/Canada). In the spirit
of an educational setting, it might be a viable exercise for students to
understand how easy and affordable
 it is to establish a legitimate digital entity.

The spirit of education is often saving money based on a former life as a
lab tech.  While cheap, the proposal to just go register a real one!
seems good for $registrar, but potentially bad for the Internet (will we
end up with a bunch of garbage domains that are never used again, and
might actually want to be used by someone else, but will then be squatted
when they expire? yada yada), and better suited for business vs school
networks.

Also, I had a digital entity long before entering a college setting.  I
suspect kids these days are even more likely to have similar.  If real is
the answer, maybe most students wouldn't have to do anything at all.

I really think a lab experiment would be fine using local TLDs, but I
guess it's impossible to really know how valid some of the concerns are
unless we sit through the class or see the course material.  :-)

 Any chance someone can correct the settings on this mailing list to
 reply to the list by default instead of the user posting the message?

This is a religious argument.  Please, leave it alone.

And, If I might add, adding a tag to the subject like [bind-users] would
be extremely nice.

It's twelve years after RFC 2919 and people are still using mail
software that can't filter on List-ID?  Aw, come on.

In gmail, it takes about 15 seconds to add a rule to apply a label to
mail with a particular list-ID.

A reasonable compromise might be a single domain purchased for use in 
course, with students using subdomains. This would cover a 
best-of-all-worlds, including internal and external considerations.


It would also let the students' environments talk to each other, if this 
is desirable (and if the teacher adds appropriate DNS records, and the 
students configure properly)


This is the approach my girlfriend used with a WordPress course she 
taught since one of the goals was to allow students to experiment and 
play from home and it worked well, but it would just as well with NS 
delegations.

 I'd argue the settings are already correct. Having the mailing
 list software rewrite the Reply-to line causes information to be
 lost, and can make it difficult to reply to the original poster
 of a message.
 



I argue different, If I post on a list, I want anyone replying to my
list post, to also be on list, and same expectation for others posting
on list, ie, if you post on list like now, you replies should go on
list, unless you (or I) specifically ask for off-list replies. 

If I want direct, I'll be bad and scrape the list and mail you all
direct :)

POC: This email address is for lists only, it is not my personal
address, anything not put in its appropriate mailing list folder is
placed in   z_lists direct  not my inbox, now I am a member of some 37
mailing lists, of which 26 are active non-new/announce types, so the
z_lists direct folder named deliberately to sit at the bottom may not be
noticed, and frankly I don't always bother checking it for days, given
99% of the posts in it ends up being spam that gets passed our anti-spam
rules - years of lists web archiving see's to that.

 Mail-Followup-To is more appropriate for replying to the
 mailing list.
 
 See: http://cr.yp.to/proto/replyto.html
 


And just because DJB says it, doesn't make it so, it is just his
opinion, and one only needs look at his track history to know that.

Unless your mail setup is extremely restricted in what it can filter
on, you have several choices of header which can be used by an
automated filter to detect and classify appropriately according to list.

Personally I have procmail file bind-users traffic based on the
List-Id: header, but I realize you may be in a different environment

I use Sieve, this is my filter syntax for bind-users:

if header :contains list-id bind-users.lists.isc.org {
  fileinto INBOX/ML/bind-users;
  stop;
}

Works with any other list that uses the list-id header.

The flip side of this is that whatever you teach them they are going
to take out into the wider world with them.  If you teach them to use
.local or .lan, some of them (at least) are going to continue using
.local or .lan long after your class is over, at least until they run
into enough problems to frustrate them into something more compatible
with current practice.
