BIND9 / DNS Zone / Dedicated Server / Unique Reverse DNS
- by user2832131
I locate a dedicated server in a datacenter with no DNS Zone setup.
Datacenter panel have 1 textfield only you can fill one Reverse DNS only.
According with datacenter instructions here...
[instructions]: http://www.wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/DNS-Reverse-DNS/en#How_can_I_assign_several_names_to_my_IP_address.2C_if_different_domains_are_hosted_on_my_server.3F How_can_I_assign_several_names_to_my_IP_address
...I need to install BIND9 in order to configure other records like CNAME and MX.
Ok, I've installed BIND9, created a Master Zone.
And following this example, I put it in the Zone File:
[example]: http://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/DNS_Zonendatei/en example
$ttl 86400
@   IN  SOA ns1.first-ns.de. postmaster.robot.first-ns.de. (
            1383411730
            14400
            1800
            604800
            86400 )
@       IN  NS  ns1.first-ns.de.
@       IN  NS  robotns2.second-ns.de.
@       IN  NS  robotns3.second-ns.com.
localhost   IN  A   127.0.0.1
@       IN  A   144.86.786.651
www     IN  A   144.86.786.651
loopback    IN  CNAME   localhost
But when I point my domain to ns1.first-ns.de, DNS Register says "time out".
Am I missing something?
I created a Master zone. Should it be a Slave zone?
named.conf:
include "/etc/bind/named.conf.options";
include "/etc/bind/named.conf.local";
include "/etc/bind/named.conf.default-zones";
named.conf.options:
options {
    directory "/var/cache/bind";
    dnssec-validation auto;
    auth-nxdomain no;    # conform to RFC1035
    listen-on-v6 { any; };
};
named.conf.local:
zone "mydomain.com" {
    type master;
    file "/var/lib/bind/mydomain.com.hosts";
    allow-update {any;};
    allow-transfer {any;};
    allow-query {any;};
};
named.conf.default-zones:
zone "." {
    type hint;
    file "/etc/bind/db.root";
};
zone "localhost" {
    type master;
    file "/etc/bind/db.local";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" {
    type master;
    file "/etc/bind/db.127";
};
zone "0.in-addr.arpa" {
    type master;
    file "/etc/bind/db.0";
};
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" {
    type master;
    file "/etc/bind/db.255";
};
Problem is that I'm moving my site, and can't update the new NS server due to a 'timeout' message when filling new datacenter NS.
I'm filling:
MASTER: ns1.first-ns.de
SLAVE1: robotns2.second-ns.de
SLAVE2: robotns3.second-ns.com
