BIND 9.13.x is the BETA version of BIND 9.14.0

2018-08-01 Thread Victoria Risk
Hello BIND-users,

Prior to BIND 9.13, new feature development releases were tagged as "alpha" and 
"beta", leading up to the first stable release for a given development branch, 
which always ended in ".0".
Now, however, BIND has adopted the "odd-unstable/even-stable" release numbering 
convention. There will be no "alpha" or "beta" releases in the 9.13 branch, 
only increasing version numbers. The first stable release from this development 
branch will be renamed as 9.14.0. We plan to pull a 9.14.0 stable branch at the 
end of 2018.

Therefore, we are already in the ‘Beta’ test period for 9.14.0. Major new 
features include the Local copy of the root zone feature and QNAME 
minimization, in particular, as well as IDNA2008 support. We want the 9.14 
branch to be stable with the .0 release, and we want these new features to be 
well-tested and deployable.

So far we have gotten two very welcome beta test reports:
- Test feedback on the root zone mirror feature from Tony Finch 
(https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/375)
- Thomas Jach reported an issue with QNAME minimization 
(https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/361)

If you have the time and want to help us out, please consider testing 9.13 and 
giving us your feedback. We welcome anyone to open a BIND issue at 
https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9.

Thank you,

Don’t forget both UDP and TCP port 53 must be open.

Only partly. You may need access to the slave at some stage.

Master log should record NOTIFY messages sent to all slaves.
If not all desired slaves are being sent NOTIFY, master needs to be
configured with relevant directive (BIND named: also-notify).

If master is sending NOTIFY, next thing to check is whether slave
is requesting AXFR/IXFR. Master log should show each transfer.
If not, then you’ll need to ask sysadmin at slave to check whether
NOTIFY is arriving and being accepted, and whether slave is actually
requesting transfer. If not, slave configuration may need
correction (BIND named: allow-notify).

If there is still a problem, you’ll likely need to use tcpdump or
the like to investigate at network level, as NOTIFY or transfer
may be blocked by a misconfigured firewall or other network fault.


One other thing: avoid using nslookup. In trying to be “helpful”,
it hides significant information and makes troubleshooting difficult.
You’ll save time (yours, and that of anyone who tries to help you)
by using dig.

slave-not-updated

2018-08-01 Thread Mohammed Ejaz




 

 

I have cma.org.sa  zone, configured in  one  master and two slaves.  As
follows.

 

 

cma.org.sa

Server:  UnKnown

Address:  212.119.64.3

 

Non-authoritative answer:

cma.org.sa  nameserver = ns2.cyberia.net.sa  (Secondary, slave server,
it is ok)

cma.org.sa  nameserver = ns1.medu.net.sa ( third  slave, changes are not
updated with serial change)

cma.org.sa  nameserver = ns1.cyberia.net.sa (this is the master server)

 

ns1.medu.net.sa internet address = 213.230.0.10

ns1.cyberia.net.sa  internet address = 212.119.92.5

ns2.cyberia.net.sa  internet address = 212.119.93.5

 

When I enable the logs for xfer, it doesn't  give any clue of problem name
server of medun.net.sa.

 

Is there any way to troubleshoot from the master server why there is no
synchnization to one more Slave.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Thanks,
