I have tried googling to very little avail. I am sure someone here
will know the answer straight away.
I have a new virtual server straight out of the box. To start i am
configuring Bind. which is living up to its name!
Iit used to be that I would look at the etc/named.conf file which would
have all its little database files in /var/named/
Now I cannot find what is where.
named.conf seems to be here but it certainly doesnt look like it should.
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/named.conf:
the messages file says it si running of a file called
/etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf
which has an include to
named.rfc1912.zones
but I still don't really know where the zone files are
this is a locate on one of them
/usr/share/doc/bind-9.3.2/sample/var/named/named.broadcast
/var/named/named.broadcast
/var/named/chroot/var/named/named.broadcast
is DNS chrooted by default on this system? It is a new redhat system of
some kind.
Where do the zone files go?
If anyone can help or point to a decent up to date guide on the web I'd
really appreciate it.
Neil
