Configuration of bind, named, dns server

This is simple guide for configuration of bind, named, dns server and so...

Let's go to install named(bind) from your linux distribution...

There is one general configuration file:

---------------------------------

/etc/named.conf

options {
directory "/var/named";

};

# named.root is available at ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.root

zone "." IN {
type hint;
file "named.root";
};

# Here is zone for domain ustrem.org

zone "ustrem.org" IN {
type master;
file "ustrem.org";
allow-transfer { none; };
allow-update { none; };

};

# Here is reverse zone zone for net 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0

zone "2.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "loc";
allow-update { none; };
};

----------------------------------------------------

Here is ustrem.org's zone file

-----------------------------

/var/named/ustrem.org
