Create a directory inside the chroot jail called var/log/ -- so, if your chroot directory is called /foo/bar, create /foor/bar/var/log and make sure that bind is allowed to write there… The directory should be /var/named/chroot if you installed all defaults. Also be aware if selinux is active it will only allow bind to write to certain directories. This is good to know on your slaves. -- Regards Robert Linux The adventure of a lifetime.

Re: Split DNS Configuration in BIND
On Tuesday 31 May 2011 00:56, the following was written: Its very simple, If you know basic firewall concept, we will configure source NATing from public IP address to original website private address in firewall. So when any users from internet access my company website, they should obviously get public IP of my company website and once they get the IP address from DNS, it can contact the website using source NATing in firewall. Here my concern is not with NATing or firewall. My basic requirement is how can i configure split DNS to maintain two different Ip address for a same website. I think you are getting your terminology mixed up here. Split DNS is when you have 2 DNS servers, one internal and the other external. Internal server serves the clients internally and the External services the people on the Internet. This setup is very easy as both server hold the same records with the proper ip addresses. The other would be VIEWS. This is when you have a single DNS server serving both internal and external requests but you want to supply different ip address for the same host name depending on where the request is coming from. If you are thinking/talking VIEWS then give this website a look: http://www.howtoforge.com/two_in_one_dns_bind9_views http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-bind9-named-configure-views/ -- Regards Robert Linux The adventure of a lifetime.

Re: Could DNS help solve this?

E.g. if you want to know who owns telephone.com(random example), do you ask whois.moniker.com, whois.markmonitor.com, whois.enum.com or ???. Why make things so difficult? How about a simple 'whois domain'? That should get you the information you are looking for. If you don't know who to ask, it can take maybe 20 attempts before you find a whois server tha gives some helpful info. In some cases looking at the NS records helps If the domain is registered properly then the above will get you your answer on the first attempt. Somebody put up the whois.uwhois.net, but that rarely gives an answer. Then logic would tell you not to use this server. How do you determine where to ask? I don't, I allow whois to do that for me. Using your example: whois telephone.com [Querying whois.verisign-grs.com] [Redirected to whois.tucows.com] [Querying whois.tucows.com] [whois.tucows.com] Please provide a real world example where you cannot get the whois information. -- Regards Robert Linux The adventure of a life time.

Re: Query denied errors on PTR records for delegated zone
On Monday 22 February 2010 19:26, Geoff Sweet wrote: I have tried several different attempts to make this work, and the only change that works is to set in the options allow-query{any;};. However the problem with that is that it then permits anyone to make any query against my nameservers and I don't want that. That the purpose of having a public DNS server? So others can get your public DNS information? You want them to be able to query your server for your information but not allow recursion. By only allowing localhost, localnets and wemadenets, everyone else is blocked thus they cannot get your information. Can anyone here offer me some advice as to what I am doing wrong? For reference here is my config file: acl wemadenets { 66.150.173.0/26; }; options { directory /var/named; dump-file /var/named/data/cache_dump.db; statistics-file /var/named/data/named_stats.txt; memstatistics-file /var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt; allow-query { localhost; localnets; wemadenets; }; allow-recursion { wemadenets; }; }; Edit allow-query and allow any. Then everyone can get your information and still not use your server for recursion I take it you are working off some sort of how-to for this. -- Regards Robert Linux User #296285 http://counter.li.org ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users

Simple thing to do. I have a test lab here that I did this in a few years ago. 2 masters and 4 slaves. The setup was simple. Configure Master A to be a slave of Master B. Configure Master B to be a slave of Master A. Configure all slaves whit both masters. Depending on how you setup the rest ensure that the Masters notify each other of updates. Now when Master B is updated it will update the slaves and Master A also. Only thing you have to watch out for is that only one zone on one master is being updated at a time. -- Regards Robert Linux User #296285 http://counter.li.org ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users

That could explain why it works when you use the init script to restart bind but it doesn't when you do rndc reload - the modified files don't get copied into the jail with rndc reload. And they do not with the init script either. The init script is shutting down bind and then reloading it again which forces a fresh read of all the files, as rndc is just telling bind to re-read the zone. -- Regards Robert Linux User #296285 http://counter.li.org ___ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
