.TITLE DEPLOYMENT
|
|
.SUBTITLE install powerdns
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ apt install pdns-server pdns-backend-bind
|
|
.cmd alpine $ apk add pdns pdns-backend-bind
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE stop (and disable) systemd-resolved
|
|
This tool prevents powerdns to start since it works on the same port (53).
|
|
.br
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ systemctl stop systemd-resolved
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ systemctl disable systemd-resolved
|
|
.cmd alpine $ no systemd-resolved by default on this system
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE run powerdns
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ systemctl restart pdns
|
|
.cmd alpine $ service pdns restart
|
|
NOTE : powerdns documentation on alpine is basically just a lot of SQL files in /usr/share/doc/pdns/
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE install inotify-tools
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ apt install inotify-tools
|
|
.cmd alpine $ apk add inotify-tools
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE install an smtp server
|
|
.cmd alpine $ apk add opensmtpd
|
|
Actual configuration of the smtp (+SPF, DKIM, etc.) should be taken care of.
|
|
An example of OpenSMTPd configuration is in this repository (infrastructure-doc).
|
|
|
|
.TITLE TESTING TOOLS
|
|
.SUBTITLE testing port 53
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ ss -pln | grep :53
|
|
.cmd alpine $ netstat -ta
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE install dig
|
|
.cmd ubuntu $ apt install dnsutils
|
|
.cmd alpine $ already installed?
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE testing the deployment and zone updates
|
|
.cmd $ dig @ns0.karchnu.fr <domain>
|
|
|
|
.TITLE CONFIGURATION and ZONE UPDATES
|
|
Well, there isn't much configuration since both powerdns instances just run "as is" with the bind backend that is filled on-the-fly.
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE watchdogs in a few words
|
|
A watchdog is (in this context) a command watching a directory.
|
|
These commands should run either on the primary or secondary name server.
|
|
They are distributed with
|
|
.cmdname dnsmanagerd
|
|
in the
|
|
.path deployment
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE primary-watchdog.sh (on primary)
|
|
Reads file in
|
|
.path /var/powerdns
|
|
and run a command (pdns_control bind-reload-now) to update the zone, then send the new (or updated) file on the secondary name server.
|
|
In case the domain wasn't already served, the domain is added (pdns_control bind-add-zone).
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE secondary-watchdog.sh (on secondary)
|
|
Same as primary-watchdog.sh but without remote operations.
|
|
|
|
.SUBTITLE primary-dnsmanagerd-to-powerdns.sh (on primary)
|
|
TODO: explanations, why doesn't dnsmanagerd use
|
|
.path /var/powerdns
|
|
directly?
|
|
.\" Since there is a migration to handle,
|
|
.\" .cmdname dnsmanagerd
|
|
.\" writes bind9 files in a temporary directory before being sent to /var/powerdns.
|
|
.\" This enables to first load old zones (they are still served as before) then to update them on-the-fly once the users make changes on the new website.
