Re: Switching from rhel base 9.16 to 9.18 copr

[John Thurston]

This doesn't answer the question you have asked, so feel free to hit 
'delete'.


I suggest that what you are trying to do has the potential to cause you 
suffering later. If you are switching to the COPR distribution, don't 
fight it. Turn off and disable the base service/daemon. Copy your .conf 
files over to the new location for the COPR distribution. Move on with 
your life.


When you are satisfied that the COPR distribution is meeting your needs 
(and you aren't going back to the base), replace that .conf in /etc with 
something defining only localhost. Your installation will look like 
every one else who is using the COPR distribution, and package updates 
to the base can happen without affecting the installation you care 
about. If some update to base does re-enable it, it will behave 
substantially differently from your real installation, and you will 
notice it.

should I edit the systemctl .service file to adjust the config path?


Thanks,

Re: Switching from rhel base 9.16 to 9.18 copr

[Carlos Horowicz]

I used these symlinks to transition from RHEL standard 9.16 to COPR 9.18

ln -s /var/opt/isc/scls/isc-bind/named /var/named
ln -s /etc/opt/isc/scls/isc-bind/named.conf /etc/named.conf
ln -s /var/opt/isc/scls/isc-bind/run/named /run/named
ln -s /opt/isc/isc-bind/root/usr/sbin/rndc /usr/sbin/rndc
ln -s /etc/opt/isc/scls/isc-bind/rndc.key /etc/rndc.key

Hopefully it's what you're looking for.

Don`t know Your OS details, but when I upgraded 9.16 to 9.18 on
FreeBSD, my entire site fell apart and nothing did work anymore.

I found the problem - after I managed to access the respective
system (my ssh utilizes DANE/SSHFP) - that I had to newly write my
config files because all the filesystem pathnames have changed
between 9.16 and 9.18.

So beware.

Switching from rhel base 9.16 to 9.18 copr

[Luca vom Bruch via bind-users]

Hello,

I use bind (stock from alma 9.3) as a nameserver for a webhosting server
with webmin/virtualmin.

If I install BIND via copr (RHEL9 and derivatives only offer 9.16 instead of
9.18 - I want to experiment with DoT for opportunistic TLS between
nameservers, upcoming standard  
RFC 9539 - Unilateral Opportunistic Deployment of Encrypted

what are the necessary steps to make isc-bind read the existing config
files? named.conf in /etc and zones in /var/named?

will the daemon only listen to /etc/opt/isc/scls/isc-bind/named.conf? should
I edit the systemctl .service file to adjust the config path? 

Thanks,
