If you set up a slave domain it will automatically query and stay in sync with
the master nameserver.
I use scripts on both ends for most new domains. Here's the files from the
slave side:
=== begin addconf.sh ===
#!/bin/sh
DATADIR="/etc/namedb/conf"
TEMPLATE="/etc/namedb/templates/default.bind"
usage() {
echo "Usage: $0 \"domain.name\" [templatefile]"
exit 1;
}
if [ "$2" ] ; then
if [ -r $2 ] ; then
TEMPLATE=$2
else
usage
fi
fi
if [ "$1" ] ; then
DOMAIN=$1
else
usage
fi
echo -n "Configuring ${DOMAIN} using ${TEMPLATE}.."
cat ${TEMPLATE} | sed -e "s/%%DOMAIN%%/${DOMAIN}/g" >
${DATADIR}/${DOMAIN}.bind
echo " done."
=== end addconf.sh ===
=== begin default.bind ===
zone "%%DOMAIN%%" {
type slave;
file "slave/%%DOMAIN%%.bak";
masters { my.master.server.ip; };
allow-query { 0.0.0.0/0; };
};
=== end default.bind ===
=== begin make-conf.sh ===
#!/bin/sh
inputfile=/etc/namedb/templates/named.conf.in
outputfile=/etc/namedb/named.conf
backupfile=/etc/namedb/backups/named.conf.old
confdir=/etc/namedb/conf
if [ -r ${outputfile} ] ; then
echo "Backing up current file to ${backupfile}.."
mv -f ${outputfile} ${backupfile}
fi
echo -n "Generating ${outputfile}"..
cp -f ${inputfile} ${outputfile}
for conffile in ${confdir}/*.bind; do
echo "include \"${conffile}\";" >> $outputfile
done
echo " done."
=== end make-conf.sh ===
For named.conf.in you just want your normal named.conf file that doesn't
include any of the domains defined in ${confdir}. Figuring out the rest of it
I leave as an exercise for the reader, but I'm happy to answer specific
questions.
