Just got the idea to start a very simple local DNS server. For that I
would like to use named.
Some question I have regarding to this:
Configuration files for named reside in /etc/namedb directory
According to the manual, I might use the command 'sh make-localhost' but
this script isn't in my /etc/namedb directory:
triton# cd /etc/namedb
triton# ll
drwxr-xr-x 2 bind wheel 512 Feb 24 18:49 dynamic
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 May 24 08:44 master
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 581 Feb 21 2007 named.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2967 Feb 24 18:53 named.root
-rw--- 1 bind wheel97 May 27 19:35 rndc.key
drwxr-xr-x 2 bind wheel 512 Feb 24 18:49 slave
Did something go wrong with installing named () or do I have to do an
additional make install?
Nope. BIND has been updated and things have changed but the handbook
hasn't caught up yet. You no longer need to run 'make-localhost'
but can just use the provided zonefiles for forward and reverse
lookups thereof. The rest is pretty much the same though.
Cheers,
Matthew
