## How do I generate an RNDC Key?
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
docker run -it --rm --entrypoint "/usr/sbin/rndc-confgen" ventz/bind
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Take the portion that looks like this and save to "/etc/bind/rndc.key":
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
# Start of rndc.conf
|
||||||
|
key "rndc-key" {
|
||||||
|
algorithm hmac-sha256;
|
||||||
|
# Note: the secret will be different, this is just an example
|
||||||
|
secret "zjVC59ehGxbbB6OhYhGaqUTIXu8Imcg3VKzvoMwIMzY=";
|
||||||
|
};
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What configuration files do I need to get started?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I highly recommend reading more about bind if this is your question. Here are some useful resources:
|
||||||

||||||

|
||||||
|
* https://wiki.debian.org/Bind9
|
||||||

* https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIND9ServerHowto
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That said, as a bare minimum (and depending on what you want - recursive, authoritative, etc), you need:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[note: all of these are provided in `container/configs` folder]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1.) Main config: `/etc/bind/named.conf`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2.) Options: `/etc/bind/named.conf.options` (note: sane and secure defaults for recursive! If for authoritative, turn off recursive at least!)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3.) Local zones: `/etc/bind/named.conf.local` (for your zone configs if authoritative/slave/etc)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4.) Optional: `/etc/bind/named.conf.rfc1918` (for your RFC1918 "private IP" zone definitions - this is optional, and while recommended, you may comment out the last line in `named.conf.local` that utilizes it)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5.) Optional: `/etc/bind/default-zones` (folder for rfc1918 definitions - not needed if `named.conf.rfc1918` is not used)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How do I log everything:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1.) Add to your `named.conf`:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
include "/etc/bind/named.conf.logging";
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
and
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2.) Create a file `named.conf.logging` with:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
logging {
|
||||||
|
channel stdout {
|
||||||
|
stderr;
|
||||||
|
severity info;
|
||||||
|
print-category no;
|
||||||
|
print-severity no;
|
||||||
|
print-time yes;
|
||||||
|
};
|
||||||
|
# Customize categories as needed
|
||||||
|
# To log everything, keep at least "default"
|
||||||
|
category security { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
category queries { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
category dnssec { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
category xfer-in { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
category xfer-out { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
category default { stdout; };
|
||||||
|
};
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
