Setup Raspberry Pi (Raspbian) as DNS Slave

Colm Carew 2017/08/11 08:30 Ensure the pi has a scotty user who has sudoer access This tutorial assumes you 10.91.100.71 is the master DNS and that 10.5.5.15 is the IP of the slave

SSH to the pi as scotty

  • sudo apt-get update
  • sudo apt-get install bind9 bind9utils
  • sudo mv /etc/bind/named.conf /etc/bind/named.conf.bk
  • sudo nano /etc/bind/named.conf
    // This is the primary configuration file for the BIND DNS server named.
    //
    // Please read /usr/share/doc/bind9/README.Debian.gz for information on the
    // structure of BIND configuration files in Debian, *BEFORE* you customize
    // this configuration file.
    //
    // If you are just adding zones, please do that in /etc/bind/named.conf.local

            // If your ISP provided one or more IP addresses for stable
            // nameservers, you probably want to use them as forwarders.

  • ssh to the master dns (qadb2) and
  • sudo nano /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
  • # Ensure that
    allow-transfer  { localhost; 10.5.5.50; 10.5.5.15;  192.168.123.211; }; # Slave DNS Servers IP

    has your slave ip

  • # If not add it and save and
  • sudo service named restart
  • # ssh back to the pi
  • sudo reboot
  • ls -l /var/cache/bind/
  • # Ensure froward and reverse for crown, errigal and extenet are present
  • # if encountering any issues please run
  • sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
  • # On the pi to see if there are any issues transferring down the files
  • # If no issues then thats it you should now be able to set this pi as a DNS
