bind doesn't work :( - katun - 12-18-2007 05:59 AM

Hi all,

I've an other problem. The DNS-Server (BIND9) doesn't work correctly. I've added the domain "dark-space.com" in ispcp as a user. the dns records are created. but nslookup don't show me the right ip.
here is the output of nslookup:
Code:
> server localhost
Default server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1#53
> dark-space.com
Server:        localhost
Address:    127.0.0.1#53

** server can't find dark-space.com: SERVFAIL
>

The record file looks like this:
Code:
$TTL 12H
$ORIGIN dark-space.com.
@               IN              SOA             ns1.dark-space.com. hostmaster.dark-space.com. (

RE: bind doesn't work :( - joximu - 12-18-2007 06:26 AM

Could you check if bind is running?

lsof -i -P -T

there should be bind running on port 53

or a "ps aux" should also show bind...

any result? please come back here

RE: bind doesn't work :( - katun - 12-18-2007 06:33 AM

lsof -i -P -T shows these results for named
Code:
named     2315     bind   20u  IPv4   6282       UDP berchtold.nine.ch.local:53
named     2315     bind   21u  IPv4   6285       TCP berchtold.nine.ch.local:53
named     2315     bind   22u  IPv4   6286       UDP berchtold.nine.ch:53

named     2315     bind   27u  IPv6   6333       TCP ip6-localhost:953

and ps aux show's this result for bind:
Code:
bind      2315  0.0  0.0  54948  3784 ?        Ssl  21:07   0:00 /usr/sbin/named -u bind


RE: bind doesn't work :( - joximu - 12-18-2007 06:46 AM

ok, so - what is the answer for this command?

dig @localhost dark-space.com

Maybe you find some helping information in the logfiles - do a bind restart and make a grep for dark-space.com in /var/log/

Hope this hleps finding the bug...

RE: bind doesn't work :( - katun - 12-18-2007 06:57 AM

also the answer of dig is:
Code:
; <<>> DiG 9.3.4 <<>> @localhost dark-space.com

I've restared bind many times. and i've rebooted the server too.
the result of cat /var/log/* | grep dark-space.com is:

RE: bind doesn't work :( - katun - 12-18-2007 07:02 AM

I found it!!! Big Grin
it was the record file! there is a cname instead an A-Record for ns2.dark-space.com. i've replaced it with the ip of the nameserver and it works. so i have to change the secondary ns in /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf to the ipadress instead of the hostname.

RE: bind doesn't work :( - joximu - 12-18-2007 07:07 AM

ah yes - now I see it to
Code:
ns2             IN              A               ns4.nine.ch

ok - cheers

RE: bind doesn't work :( - katun - 12-18-2007 07:18 AM

but one question: does ispcp transfer the zonefiles automaticly when a secondary dns is configured in /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf? Or i have to enable it manually?
