Hi,
I have Bind configured on CentOS 5.6
I searched for the named.conf, thinking it would be in /etc .
|
# updatedb
# locate named.conf
Instead I find it at /etc/dbus-1/system.d/named.conf - I assume this is an example file?
Also from reading the docs I suspect my config is setup is bind-chroot because I am finding the directory /var/named/chroot/etc/ ?

Correct all modern bind servers MUST be chroot for security reasons (brute forcing and fuzzing).
I assume I should be configuring named.conf in the /var/named/chroot/etc/ directory?
|
# man named.conf
I also found this configuration:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root named 52 Apr 27 18:28 named.caching-nameserver.conf -> /var/named/chroot//etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root named 42 Apr 27 18:28 named.rfc1912.zones -> /var/named/chroot//etc/named.rfc1912.zones
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root
named 31 Apr 21 09:47 rndc.key -> /var/named/chroot//etc/rndc.key
I have cashing name server already configure /etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf. I have not opened port 53 so I assume it is not working yet.
I'm sure I'll have 1000 questions this afternoon and tonight.

In CentOs 5 the configurations don't come setup. You can copy over examples and season to your tastes (but if you have never run Named, it's daunting).
Try this:
# system-config-bind
Any guidance is much appreciated.
Thanks for your help!
