Running A MySQL-Based DNS Server: MyDNS
Author: falko •
Tags: dns, mydns •
Comments: 9 Running A MySQL-Based DNS Server: MyDNS In this tutorial I will describe how to install and configure MyDNS, a DNS server that uses a MySQL database as backend instead of configuration files like, for example, Bind or djbdns. This has the advantage that you can easily use web-based frontends to administrate your DNS records. You could even write your own frontend, e.g. using PHP, to interact with the MyDNS database. MyDNS simply reads the records from the database, and it does not have to be restarted/reloaded when DNS records change or zones are created/edited/deleted! This is a major advantage.

Traditional DNS Howto
Author: taft • Tags: dns, bind • Comments: 26Traditional DNS Howto Linux system administrators should learn traditional DNS. Front-ends and quick templates to setup domain records have a place in managing sites. When confronted with DNS configurations already in existence, nothing can substitute for knowing and using the fundamentals. The vast majority of users on the Internet have no clue about DNS. They may have seen the term when they set up their ISP connection, but they do not realize its connection to their lives. Simply put, DNS servers allow you to use friendly names in your browser, email or other Internet applications to perform tasks which require IP addresses.

How To Run Your Own Name Servers With ISPConfig And GoDaddy
Author: falko • Tags: dns, bind • Comments: 8How To Run Your Own Name Servers With ISPConfig And GoDaddy This tutorial shows how you can run your own name servers for domains that you register with GoDaddy. Of course, this works with every other registrar as well, although the procedure might differ a little bit. To do this, you need two servers with two different public IP addresses and with ISPConfig installed, and of course a GoDaddy account.

[Debian Sarge] Installing A Bind9 Master/Slave DNS System
Author: harm • Tags: dns, bind • Comments: 7[Debian Sarge] Installing A Bind9 Master/Slave DNS System In this howto we will install 2 bind dns servers, one as the master and the other as a slave server. For security reasons we will chroot bind9 in its own jail. Using two servers for a domain is a commonly used setup and in order to host your own domain you are required to have at least 2 domain servers. If one breaks, the other can continue to serve your domain.

How To Configure Dynamic DNS (Fedora Core 4 Setup)
Author: sohaileo • Tags: dns, fedora, bind • Comments: 2How To Configure Dynamic DNS (Fedora Core 4 Setup) In this howto we will learn how to build a Dynamic DNS Server. Normally when we configure DNS, we use static entries to resolve any FQDN. If we are using DHCP in our network which gives dynamic IPs to every computer that turns on or requests one, then it is not possible to configure DNS statically. For that we should configure our DNS with DHCP in a manner that whenever a computer gets a new IP, its FQDN will be automatically updated with the new IP in DNS.

Resolving Domains Internally And Externally With Bind9 And Caching Nameserver

There are different solutions to this problem, but in this howto, we are going to solve it through configuring a combination of caching-nameserver and BIND 9.

MyDNS with MyDNSConfig Control Panel and DNSMasq on Ubuntu 6.10
Author: till • Tags: dns, ubuntu, control panels, mydns • Comments: 3MyDNS with MyDNSConfig Control Panel and DNSMasq on Ubuntu 6.10 In this tutorial I will describe how to install and configure MyDNS and MyDNSConfig. MyDNS is a DNS server that uses a MySQL database as backend instead of configuration files like, for example, Bind or djbdns. The advantage is that MyDNS simply reads the records from the database, and it does not have to be restarted/reloaded when DNS records change or zones are created/edited/deleted. A secondary nameserver can be easily set up by installing a second instance of MyDNS that accesses the same database or, to be more redundant, uses the MySQL master / slave replication features to replicate the data to the secondary nameserver.

Creating A DNS Cache With djbdns
Author: alamster • Tags: dns, freebsd, djbdns • Comments: 0Creating A DNS Cache With djbdns Building a local DNS cache will speed up your internet connection since the time for the “translation job” (converting domain names into IP addresses) will become negligible with the assumption that the DNS cache gets the information from the parent DNS.
