Hello! My friend, who hosts most of my stuff, is using djbdns. Probably for security and simplicity. Anyway I thought I'd do the same. But I'm having serious difficulties finding a user-friendly howto. I've basically picked stuff from here and there and put them together. Would this be what I need to set up a djbdns equivalent to http://www.home.no/hedhnta/namedb? -- Create users: tinydns axfrdns dnslog dnscache -- Run these commands: mkdir /etc/tinydns mkdir /etc/axfrdns mkdir /etc/dnslog mkdir /etc/dnscache mkdir /etc/dnscache/root mkdir /etc/dnscache/root/ip mkdir /etc/dnscache/root/servers Should the above directories be set as home for the users above? -- Continue with: dnscache-conf dnscache dnslog /etc/dnscache 127.0.0.1 touch /etc/dnscache/root/ip/192.168.187.1 touch /etc/dnscache/root/ip/192.168.187.2 echo 127.0.0.1 > /etc/dnscache/root/servers/mydomain.lan echo 127.0.0.1 > /etc/dnscache/root/servers/187.168.192.in-addr.arpa tinydns-conf tinydns dnslog /etc/tinydns 213.187.181.70 axfrdns-conf axfrdns dnslog /etc/axfrdns /etc/tinydns 213.187.181.70 ln -s /etc/dnscache /service ln -s /etc/tinydns /service svc -t /service/dnscache -- Would djbdns now have created this file for me? If so, can I skip this? If not, I take it I should: vim /etc/tinydns/data And type in: .mydomain.com::ns1.mydomain.com @mydomain.com::mail.mydomain.com =myhost.mydomain.com:213.181.112.43 +mail.mydomain.com:213.181.112.43 +www.mydomain.com:213.181.112.43 Then: cd /etc/tinydns make -- To allow my 213.181.102.23 to be ns2.mydomain.com, I must do this? vi /etc/axfrdns/tcp And then type in: 213.181.102.23:allow,AXFR="*" I have a lot of domains. I want the ns2 to handle them all. Is the wildcard "*" valid, or should I list them all? Anyway: cd /etc/axfrdns make -- As for my zone files, I take it I could cram all my domains into the data file? How would that look? -- That's it. I'm hoping that once everything is up, my configuration will be stored in files that I can back up and easily redeploy incase of an accident (similar to my current namedb setup I posted above). Thank you all, and happy new year! Kristian Vaaf
