Hello zaG and welcome to this forum!
I just installed BIND, as I know nothing about it and have never used it.
After install, there is now:
etc/bind/named.conf
that contains:
options {
directory "/var/named";
// uncomment the following lines to turn on DNS forwarding,
// and change the forwarding ip address(es) :
//forward first;
//forwarders {
// 123.123.123.123;
// 123.123.123.123;
//};
listen-on-v6 { none; };
listen-on { 127.0.0.1; };
// to allow only specific hosts to use the DNS server:
//allow-query {
// 127.0.0.1;
//};
// if you have problems and are behind a firewall:
//query-source address * port 53;
pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
// Enable recursion , this is a potential security problem, see http://www.us-cert.gov/reading_room/DNS-recursion033006.pdf
// recursion yes;
// allow-recursion { localnets; localhost; };
// allow-query-cache { localnets; localhost; };
};
// Briefly, a zone which has been declared delegation-only will be effectively
// limited to containing NS RRs for subdomains, but no actual data beyond its
// own apex (for example, its SOA RR and apex NS RRset). This can be used to
// filter out "wildcard" or "synthesized" data from NAT boxes or from
// authoritative name servers whose undelegated (in-zone) data is of no
// interest.
// See http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/delegation-only.html for more info
//zone "COM" { type delegation-only; };
//zone "NET" { type delegation-only; };
zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};
zone "localhost" IN {
type master;
file "pri/localhost.zone";
allow-update { none; };
notify no;
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "pri/127.zone";
allow-update { none; };
notify no;
};
Is this what you are looking for?
