Building BIND is easy; turning it into an installable RPM not so.
I highly recommend fpm [1] which makes building an RPM trivial. :)
Any advice or tricks for making a DEB for Ubuntu?
So far my plan was to copy the source directory to each server and just
run make install on each. I'm only looking at 8 to 10 servers.
This got old for me really fast, so I ended up writing a small script to do
this for me…
WARNING: This works for me, but doesn't do a huge amount of error checking, may
completely trash your machine, cause male pattern baldness, etc.
It is in: http://www.auth-servers.net/files/named/upgrade_bind_unattended.sh
I run this out of cron every few minutes. It downloads a file called
bind_versions.txt (from INSTRUCT_URL). This file contains key value pairs
specifying the hostname and version of BIND that that host should be running,
something like:
ns1: 9.9.1
ns2: 9.8.0
If the hostname is not running the specified version it will:
1: Delete everything in /usr/local/src/bind/ (!)
2: Download the source from ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/$BIND_VER/
3: Check the GPG signature.
4: Build the new BIND and install it.
5: Restart BIND
6: Send mail saying that it is done…
I use puppet to push to install this script, and to setup a cronjob to run it
(I could have done most of this in puppet itself, but that seems hard :-P)
Feel free to update / modify the script to make it work in your environment…
