Dear Till

here below is my named.conf file

Code:

GNU nano 1.3.12                File: /etc/named.conf                                                             Modified

        statistics-file
"/var/named/chroot/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
        memstatistics-file
"/var/named/chroot/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt";
        allow-query     { localhost; };
        recursion yes;
};
logging {
        channel default_debug {
                file "data/named.run";
                severity dynamic;
        };
};
zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "named.root";
};
//
// named.conf
//
// Provided by Red Hat bind package to configure the ISC BIND named(8)
DNS
// server as a caching only nameserver (as a localhost DNS resolver
only).
//
// See /usr/share/doc/bind*/sample/ for example named configuration
files.
//
options {
        listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; };
        listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; };
        directory       "/var/named/chroot/var/named";
        dump-file
"/var/named/chroot/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";

(ISPconfig3 also showing DNS service off line)

I hope it will help you to help me

 

Dear Till

I need your help please reply.

 

Can you post the output of

Code:

cat /etc/named.conf

?

In your previous post your named.conf looks as if it's formatted wrong, but I'm not sure if it really is or if something went wrong when you pasted it here.

 

Dear Falko

thanks for your reply

Please find below the output you asked.

Code:

[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/named.conf

Dear Falko

I am desperately waiting for your reply

I need your help

 

Code:

//
// named.conf
//
// Provided by Red Hat bind package to configure the ISC BIND named(8)
[COLOR="Red"]DNS[/COLOR]
// server as a caching only nameserver (as a localhost DNS resolver
[COLOR="Red"]only).[/COLOR]
//
// See /usr/share/doc/bind*/sample/ for example named configuration
[COLOR="Red"]files.[/COLOR]
//

Please make sure that the strings that I marked in red don't use a new line - they must all go in the previous line.

 

Dear Falko

I have changed the file as you advice but still DNS service is not start

here is output of my file

Code:

[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/named.conf
//

options {
        listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; };
        listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; };
        directory       "/var/named/chroot/var/named";
        dump-file

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

Dear Falko

Thanks you very much

It is solve when I restart my computer

Thanks, Thanks Thanks,

You Rock Falko.

 

There was a similar problem. created the named.conf file with the
specified code in the directory / var / named / chroot / etc / but
The DNS issue fails.

BIND installed according to instructions http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-5.5-x86_64-ispconfig-3-p5

in the directory / var / named / chroot / etc has created a file named.conf specified in the
How content. in the same directory the file file named.conf.local is registered in the following:

zone "localhost" {
type master;
file "var/named/chroot/etc/domain.local";
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa." {
type master;
file "var/named/chroot/etc/127.0.0.rev";
};

in the directory / var / named / chroot / etc has created a files

domain.local

$TTL 3h
@ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost.
1 1d 12h 1w 3h

domain.local. IN NS localhost.

domain A 127.0.0.1
serv1 A 127.0.0.1

127.0.0.rev
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. 1 1d 12h 1w 3h

@ IN NS localhost

129 PTR localhost.
53 PTR serv.localhost.

when you start getting the following BIND:
[[email protected] ~]# /etc/init.d/named restart
Останавливается named: [ OK ]
Запускается named:
Ошибка в конфигурации named: :
zone localhost/IN: loading master file var/named/chroot/etc/domain.local: file not found
_default/localhost/IN: file not found
zone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loading master file var/named/chroot/etc/127.0.0.rev: file not found
_default/0.0.127.in-addr.arpa./IN: file not found
[ СБОЙ ]
tell me what's the problem?

 

Can you replace the line

Code:

include "/var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf.local";

with

Code:

include "/var/named/chroot/var/named/named.local";

in /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf and restart BIND?

 

Thanks, solved the problem yourself. There were errors in the
configuration files. and not set access rights
the file named.conf. bind now works fine
