Subject: RE: Setting Up Bind9 Test
Lisa and Michael,



Thank you for your input. I did not think about the rndc so I reloaded just for the heck of it. Yet I am still not getting Metasploit to show the recursive call working. Here is the named.conf.options file:



options {

                directory "/var/cache/bind";


                dump-file "/var/cache/bind/data/cache_dump.db";


                statistics-file "/var/cache/bind/data/named_stats.txt";


                recursion yes;


                auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035


                allow-recursion { any; };


                allow-query { any; };


                //  allow-query-cache { any; };


                listen-on port 53 { any; };


};



I was unable to get the allow-query-cache line to load, I am not sure what I did wrong.



I did find the same pages and I have been through them, but I do not see what I am missing. What else am I missing?



Thank You,



David



P.S.



Lisa – thank you so much for yesterday. You have really given my class a lot to talk about. I am looking forward to class this week with them to see what else is said.

Hi David!

Nice to see you on Saturday!

Bind9 can be fussy (rndc controls everything).

You ARE changing the right item to turn recursion on.
http://www.eukhost.com/forums/f15/turning-off-dns-recursion-bind-2283/

But you can also do this in a Bind9 ACL using the "Views" feature:
http://www.bind9.net/manual/bind/9.3.1/Bv9ARM.ch07.html
http://oreilly.com/pub/a/oreilly/networking/news/views_0501.html

Are you restarting named after a change? "/etc/init.d/named restart"
If you have rndc are you reloading? "rdnc reload"

Do you have logging turned on, so you can see what is happening?
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIND9ServerHowto

Are you editing the right file? There's a chroot? "locate named.conf"

I am trying to set up a DNS poisoning test as an example for my class. I have setup both an Ubuntu 6.10 and 10.10 server. When I use my Backtrack system to check the DNS server I get a message “This server is not replying to recursive requests”. I have added “allow-recursion { any; };” to my configuration file. Yet the Backtrack system still fails. What do I have to do to allow on the DNS server for the Backtrack system to do the recursive request?



Thank you for your help,



David
