Exclamation Can't setup DNS server on Ubuntu server 10


Hello to all !

I'll try to describe my question as clear as possible.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
- I have purchased a domain name : *****.md
- In the panel of registrar I have only the following options to complete :
Primary NS Hostname
Primary NS Netaddress
Secondary NS Hostname
Secondary NS Netaddress

- At home I have :
a)a WiFi router that is getting an external IP from my ISP provider (internal address of router is 192.168.1.111);
External IP from ISP is STATIC.

b)a computer which I use as server (ubuntu 10) with internal IP 192.168.1.100 (I get it by DHCP from Router but it can be set as static of course);

- On server are installed :
a) Apache + Mysql + PHP
b) Ftp serv
c) Webmin
d) SSH serv
e) Bind9 DNS serv


- On my WiFi router there is an option "Forwarding -> Virtual servers" where I setup the ports 53 + 80 to forward to my server and I can access from external my site by IP.


All I want is to have my site *****.md to run on my server and to be visible to external world.

I have searched Google for last 2-3 days for a solution but everything I try doesn't help.

I'm new in Linux ( 1 week probably). Everything except DNS server Bind I was able to setup and are working well.


Can anyone help me for setting this up. If possible step by step using webmin or shell.


This is my first post on this forum so I hope I followed the rules.


Kindly appreciated any reply.

Thanks but my question is totally different from your links.

My IP is STATIC and I want to setup Bind DNS server on Ubuntu.

What you've showed to me I have done some time ago on my windows pc but it's not what I need now.

You don't want to do port forwarding?

Create a file /etc/bind/whatever.md
change what needs changing, ";" are remarks.


; /etc/bind/whatever.md
;Zone File: whatever.md
$TTL 300; Five minutes, change this if you want.
$ORIGIN whatever.md.
@ IN SOA ns1.whatever.md. admin.whatever.md. (
1 ; serial number
28800 ; refresh
3600 ; retry
604800 ; expire
300 ) ; min TTL

;
; Name servers
@ IN NS ns1.whatever.md.
;
; Mail servers
@ IN MX 10 mail.whatever.md.
;
@ IN A 123.456.123.456
ns1 IN A 123.456.123.456
www IN A 123.456.123.456
mail IN A 123.456.123.456



Add the following to the end of /etc/bind/named.conf.local

zone "whatever.md" {
type master;
notify no;
allow-query { any; };
file "/etc/bind/whatever.md";
};


Edit /etc/bind/named.conf.options
and change forwarders and listen-on to correct numbers.
You may want to add:

version "None of your business";
allow-transfer { none; };

Before the closing brace.


/etc/init.d/bind9 restart
Should restart the server.

Look at your syslog for any errors when it starts
tail -n200 /var/log/syslog

Good luck
Russ
