# cat /usr/local/bind/etc/named.conf
Code:
options {
directory "/namedb";
version "I do not give any version info";
pid-file "/var/run/named.pid";
allow-transfer { none ;};
};
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "/etc/named.root";
};
zone "satimis.com" {
type master ;
file "satimis.com.zone";
allow-query {any;};
allow-update { none; };
};
There is no entry for rndc.conf. Can I add another zone
Code:
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "/etc/rndc.conf";
};
under "/etc/named.root" zone ?
and link rndc.conf as;
Code:
# ln - s /usr/local/src/bind-9.5.0/bin/rndc/rndc.conf /etc/local/bind/etc/rndc.conf
???
OR just copy it on the default directory /etc/local/bind/etc ?
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "/etc/rndc.conf";
};
?
Aside from the fact that zone . should point to root servers, you already have
Code:
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "/etc/named.root";
};
rndc needs a config, but it's a program in itself
Hi billymayday,
On running;
# /usr/local/bind/sbin/named -u named -t /usr/local/bind -c /etc/named.conf -g

it said "open: /usr/local/bind/etc/rndc.key: file not found" I'm trying to fix this problem. Whether it only happens running bind9 on foreground. I can ignore this warning.
Do you have rndc installed? rndc is a control program for bind - bind doesn't rely on it, but it requires the key (if setup for it) for rndc to communicate with bind. If you don't have rndc installed, or you don't plan on using it, comment out the references to the key in named.conf.

$ apt-cache search rndc
