djbdns

well here I want to explain how to install and setup djbdns on ubuntu server 10.10 64 bit on a single server.

1. first of all install all djbdns package

apt-get install djbdns

2. then create corresponding user accounts

useradd -r Gtinydns # for dns server
useradd -r Gdnscache # for caching
useradd -r Gdnslog # for logging
useradd -r Gaxfrdns # for zone transfer

3. make configurations

tinydns-conf Gtinydns Gdnslog /etc/tinydns 127.0.0.1

dnscache-conf Gdnscache Gdnslog /etc/dnscache 9.20.3.27

9.20.3.27 is my ip address. you can change with your own.

4. create /etc/event.d/svscan and fill with

# svscan - daemontools

# https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/daemontools-installer/+bug/66615

#

start on runlevel 2
start on runlevel 3
start on runlevel 4
start on runlevel 5

stop on runlevel 0
stop on runlevel 1
stop on runlevel 6


respawn
exec /usr/bin/svscanboot

5. touch /etc/dnscache/root/ip/9.20.3.27
6. start the service

mkdir /etc/service

ln -s /etc/tinydns /etc/service

ln -s /etc/dnscache /etc/service

ln -s /etc/axfrdns /etc/service

7. add zones

cd /etc/tinydns/root
