1)Run make-localhost from /etc/namedb to generate /master/localhost.rev 2) Generate rndc.key file: #rndc-confgen -a 3) Write in named.conf the following: #you should use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost server 127.0.0.1 { keys "rndc-key"; }; #this you should copy from your rndc.key file key "rndc-key" { algorithm hmac-md5; secret "FSrnikY4eK+xxsIamB0fEQ=="; }; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { "rndc-key"; }; }; 4)Restart named server (you can use kill -HUP or you can kill it and start it again) 5) Run #rndc reload 6) Run #rndc status. You should see sometihing like this: number of zones: 2 debug level: 0 xfers running: 0 xfers deferred: 0 soa queries in progress: 0 query logging is OFF recursive clients: 0/1000 tcp clients: 0/100 server is up and running To setup a domain (for example example.org) on your nameserver: Write in named.conf: zone "example.org" { type master; file "example.org"; }; This indicates that the zone is master and the info about this zone is found in the file example.org. Create zone file example.org and insert the followings: $TTL 3600 #ns1.example.org is set the primary nameserver for the zone #admin.example.com is the email of the responsible person for this zone (the first "." will be replaced with "@") #the serial is a random number that has to be changed every time you modify the zone file (usualy the date format is prefered) example.org. IN SOA ns1.example.org. root.example.org. ( 2005120500 ; Serial 10800 ; Refresh 3600 ; Retry 604800 ; Expire 86400 ) ; Minimum TTL ; DNS Servers @ IN NS ns1.example.org. @ IN NS ns2.example.org. ; Machine Names localhost IN A 127.0.0.1 ns1 IN A 3.2.1.2 ns2 IN A 3.2.1.3 mail IN A 3.2.1.10 @ IN A 3.2.1.30 ; Aliases www IN CNAME @ ; MX Record @ IN MX 10 mail.example.org. #rndc reload |
