Okay, so I tried offering up to 50 dollars an hour to help me set up a
simple nameserver, but no takers.
I really need some help. My first time doing it.
At this point I would just be happy to be able to do a dig or nslookup to a
website like google.
Another issue is the named-checkconf and named-checkzone do not seem to like
how centos has chrooted the files and so far I have been unable to
successfully run these tools.
This is my named.conf right now and causes no errors in the message logs.
I get a timed out, no servers could be reached when doing dig google.com
I have etc/resolv.conf saying search localhost on one line and nameserver
xx.xx.xx.xx on the next.
My host name is localhost, full is localhost.localdomian.
AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
controls {}; shuts off rndc as I have no network
options {
directory "/var/named/";
allow-recursion { xx.xx.xx/24; localhost; }; the xx is the first
three parts of the ip address of my server.
}; this option only lets my server use recursion on my nameserver and not
everyone else in the world.
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "127.0.0.zone"; this file causes no errors
allow-update { none; };
allow-transfer { none; };
};
zone "." {
type hint;
file "root.hint"; it finds it and has all the root servers
};
zone "localhost" IN {
type master;
file "localhost.zone"; seems okay
allow-update { none; };
allow-transfer { none; };
};
Good thing the server is in the datacenter or I would be on the news as I
light this thing on fire in my front yard. Jumping jesus
