Question about DNS control - Guire - 02-18-2008 01:44 PM
I have a dedicated server which hosts a few people and I'm considering installing this panel for my users.
I have a question about it's functionality. I use BIND as my DNS server, I'm wondering if It will correctly create the zones when users add domains on their account or do I have to manually edit my zones?

hmm what do you mean by "correctly" ?
RE: Question about DNS control - Guire - 02-18-2008 01:55 PM
Do it without screwing up all my other configurations.
RE: Question about DNS control - blocker - 02-18-2008 02:03 PM
Oh, ispcp will create DNS entry, base on ispcp dns template, so it will overide you configuration, well you have to edit it manually i guess
take a look on DNS template maybe you can ajust it so you dont have to rewrite your configuration 100%

Ok so I can edit my zones manually after ispcp has created the zone as long as I follow the the template? like adding my own aliases or mx records.

yes, and dont forget to copy it to ispcp bind working dir, otherwise it will be overwrite back by ispcp

Ok I'll try it out on a dev server in my lan and then move my config to my dedicated server

Hi Guire
I'd recommend to create a separate file for the ispcp-bind configuration (see /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf) and include this in your normal named.conf.
You should do this after copying the files from /tmp/... to / and before "ispcp-setup".
eg. I have in /etc/bind/named.conf.local (which is included by debian already):
include "/etc/bind/named.ispcp.conf";
and the line in ispcp.conf looks like this:
BIND_CONF_FILE = /etc/bind/named.ispcp.conf
This runs fine and the separation is good.

Good idea thanks for the tips!
