Hi,
I'm setting up my first DNS server. It's on the OpenBSD platform and the server in question is on a DMZ behind a pf FW. It uses a private IP, but will host real external domains. The firewall is currently closed to any traffic to/from the DMZ until I can get the DNS configured. I used DNS & BIND's examples for my zone data files. I put all the db.* files in the /var/named/master directory and told named.conf to look in that directory. When starting named with the "-g" switch, I get the following output: Sep 01 11:43:36.151 starting BIND 9.2.2 -g Sep 01 11:43:36.152 using 1 CPU Sep 01 11:43:36.159 loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf' Sep 01 11:43:36.160 /etc/named.conf:3: option 'directory' contains relative path 'master' Sep 01 11:43:36.161 listening on IPv6 interfaces, port 53 Sep 01 11:43:36.163 listening on IPv4 interface lo0, 127.0.0.1#53 Sep 01 11:43:36.163 listening on IPv4 interface fxp0, 192.168.1.3#53 Sep 01 11:43:36.171 none:0: open: /etc/rndc.key: file not found Sep 01 11:43:36.171 couldn't add command channel 127.0.0.1#953: file not found Sep 01 11:43:36.172 none:0: open: /etc/rndc.key: file not found Sep 01 11:43:36.172 couldn't add command channel ::1#953: file not found Sep 01 11:43:36.172 using pre-chroot entropy source /dev/arandom Sep 01 11:43:36.173 ignoring config file logging statement due to -g option Sep 01 11:43:36.175 zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 1 Sep 01 11:43:36.178 zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 1 Sep 01 11:43:36.181 zone mainlinecomputersupport.com/IN: loaded serial 1 Sep 01 11:43:36.181 running Sep 01 11:43:36.182 zone mainlinecomputersupport.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 1) Sep 01 11:43:36.184 zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: sending notifies (serial 1) Sep 01 11:43:36.185 zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: sending notifies (serial 1) It looks to me that though there are some errors, the name server is running. But if I do a "dig -x 127.0.0.1" it times out saying: "connection timed out; no servers could be reached" Now, the DMZ is not yet routing to the rest of the world (either in or out), so I don't expect it to find anything yet, but I thought that I was telling dig to look at localhost for its query. Here is my named.conf: // plagiarized from DNS&BIND 4th ed. options { directory "master"; }; zone "mainlinecomputersupport.com" in { type master; file "db.mainlinecomputersupport.com"; }; zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "db.192.168.1"; }; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "db.127.0.0"; }; zone "." in { type hint; file "db.cache"; }; Any ideas what I'm missing in this config? Thanks in advance for any help. |
