I am using BIND 9.8.2rc1-RedHat-9.8.2-0.30.rc1.el6_6. I will use
example.com and 5.5.5.5 instead of actual ip.
It is not responding to queries, port is open from what I can tell.
Even from actual server if I ping my domain "ping example.com", it doesn't find it as being local host, so I suspect the problem is in bind zone/config files and not a blocked port.
I tested with an online debug tool, typed the domain, it got the ns.example.com record associated with my domain, it tried to query the right server IP address and the server didn't respond.
From my home computer if I "telnet 5.5.5.5 53" it enters as waiting commands (like for my other servers), so I assume that is Bind and port is open.
Code:
//
// named.conf
//
// Provided by Red Hat bind package to configure the ISC BIND named(8) DNS
// server as a caching only nameserver (as a localhost DNS resolver only).
//
// See /usr/share/doc/bind*/sample/ for example named configuration files.
//
options {
listen-on port 53 { any; };
// listen-on-v6 port 53 { any; };
directory "/var/named";
dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt";
allow-query { any; };
recursion yes;
dnssec-enable yes;
dnssec-validation yes;
dnssec-lookaside auto;
/* Path to ISC DLV key */
bindkeys-file "/etc/named.iscdlv.key";
managed-keys-directory "/var/named/dynamic";
};
logging {
channel default_debug {
file "data/named.run";
severity dynamic;
};
};
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};
include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones";
include "/etc/named.root.key";
zone "example.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/example.com.hosts";
};
And my zone file:
Code:
$ttl 38400
example.com. IN SOA localhost.localdomain. dns.example.com. (
1432513360
10800
3600
604800
38400 )
example.com. IN NS ns1.example.com.
example.com. IN NS ns2.example.com.
example.com. IN NS ns3.example.com.
example.com. IN NS ns4.example.com.
example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
mail.example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
ns1.example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
ns2.example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
ns3.example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
ns4.example.com. IN A 5.5.5.5
www.example.com. IN CNAME example.com.
example.com. IN MX 10 mail.example.com.
What is wrong with my bind settings ? It doesn't respond to queries.
