There are many ways to configure BIND9. Some of the most common configurations are a caching nameserver, primary master, and as a secondary master.

  When configured as a caching nameserver BIND9 will find the answer to name queries and remember the answer when the domain is queried again.

  As a primary master server BIND9 reads the data for a zone from a file on it's host and is authoritative for that zone.

  In a secondary master configuration BIND9 gets the zone data from another nameserver authoritative for the zone.

The DNS configuration files are stored in the /etc/bind directory. The primary configuration file is /etc/bind/named.conf.

The include line specifies the filename which contains the DNS options. The directory line in the /etc/bind/named.conf.options file tells DNS where to look for files. All files BIND uses will be relative to this directory.

The file named /etc/bind/db.root describes the root nameservers in the world. The servers change over time, so the /etc/bind/db.root file must be maintained now and then. This is usually done as updates to the bind9 package. The zone section defines a master server, and it is stored in a file mentioned in the file option.

It is possible to configure the same server to be a caching name server, primary master, and secondary master. A server can be the Start of Authority (SOA) for one zone, while providing secondary service for another zone. All the while providing caching services for hosts on the local LAN.

The default configuration is setup to act as a caching server. All that is required is simply adding the IP Addresses of your ISP's DNS servers. Simply uncomment and edit the following in /etc/bind/named.conf.options:

forwarders {

              1.2.3.4;
              5.6.7.8;
         };

Replace 1.2.3.4 and 5.6.7.8 with the IP Adresses of actual nameservers.

Now restart the DNS server, to enable the new configuration. From a terminal prompt:

sudo service bind9 restart

See dig for information on testing a caching DNS server.

In this section BIND9 will be configured as the Primary Master for the domain example.com. Simply replace example.com with your FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name).

To add a DNS zone to BIND9, turning BIND9 into a Primary Master server, the first step is to edit /etc/bind/named.conf.local:

zone «example.com» {

type master;
      file "/etc/bind/db.example.com";

};

Now use an existing zone file as a template to create the /etc/bind/db.example.com file:

sudo cp /etc/bind/db.local /etc/bind/db.example.com

Edit the new zone file /etc/bind/db.example.com change localhost. to the FQDN of your server, leaving the additional «.» at the end. Change 127.0.0.1 to the nameserver's IP Address and root.localhost to a valid email address, but with a «.» instead of the usual «@» symbol, again leaving the «.» at the end. Change the comment to indicate the domain that this file is for.

Create an A record for the base domain, example.com. Also, create an A record for ns.example.com, the name server in this example:

; ; BIND data file for example.com ; $TTL 604800 @ IN SOA example.com. root.example.com. (

                            2         ; Serial
                       604800         ; Refresh
                        86400         ; Retry
                      2419200         ; Expire
                       604800 )       ; Negative Cache TTL
      IN      A       192.168.1.10

; @ IN NS ns.example.com. @ IN A 192.168.1.10 @ IN AAAA ::1 ns IN A 192.168.1.10

You must increment the Serial Number every time you make changes to the zone file. If you make multiple changes before restarting BIND9, simply increment the Serial once.

Now, you can add DNS records to the bottom of the zone file. See Common Record Types for details.

Many admins like to use the last date edited as the serial of a zone, such as 2012010100 which is yyyymmddss (where ss is the Serial Number)

Once you have made changes to the zone file BIND9 needs to be restarted for the changes to take effect:

sudo service bind9 restart

Now that the zone is setup and resolving names to IP Adresses a Reverse zone is also required. A Reverse zone allows DNS to resolve an address to a name.

Edit /etc/bind/named.conf.local and add the following:

zone «1.168.192.in-addr.arpa» {

      type master;
      file "/etc/bind/db.192";

};

Replace 1.168.192 with the first three octets of whatever network you are using. Also, name the zone file /etc/bind/db.192 appropriately. It should match the first octet of your network.

Now create the /etc/bind/db.192 file:

sudo cp /etc/bind/db.127 /etc/bind/db.192

Next edit /etc/bind/db.192 changing the basically the same options as /etc/bind/db.example.com:

; ; BIND reverse data file for local 192.168.1.XXX net ; $TTL 604800 @ IN SOA ns.example.com. root.example.com. (

                            2         ; Serial
                       604800         ; Refresh
                        86400         ; Retry
                      2419200         ; Expire
                       604800 )       ; Negative Cache TTL

; @ IN NS ns. 10 IN PTR ns.example.com.

The Serial Number in the Reverse zone needs to be incremented on each change as well. For each A record you configure in /etc/bind/db.example.com, that is for a different address, you need to create a PTR record in /etc/bind/db.192.

After creating the reverse zone file restart BIND9:

sudo service bind9 restart

Once a Primary Master has been configured a Secondary Master is needed in order to maintain the availability of the domain should the Primary become unavailable.

First, on the Primary Master server, the zone transfer needs to be allowed. Add the allow-transfer option to the example Forward and Reverse zone definitions in /etc/bind/named.conf.local:

zone «example.com» {

      type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.example.com";
      allow-transfer { 192.168.1.11; };

};

zone «1.168.192.in-addr.arpa» {

      type master;
      file "/etc/bind/db.192";
allow-transfer { 192.168.1.11; };

};

Replace 192.168.1.11 with the IP Address of your Secondary nameserver.

Restart BIND9 on the Primary Master:

sudo service bind9 restart

Next, on the Secondary Master, install the bind9 package the same way as on the Primary. Then edit the /etc/bind/named.conf.local and add the following declarations for the Forward and Reverse zones:

zone «example.com» {

type slave;
      file "db.example.com";
      masters { 192.168.1.10; };

};

zone «1.168.192.in-addr.arpa» {

type slave;
      file "db.192";
      masters { 192.168.1.10; };

};

Replace 192.168.1.10 with the IP Address of your Primary nameserver.

Restart BIND9 on the Secondary Master:

sudo service bind9 restart

In /var/log/syslog you should see something similar to (some lines have been split to fit the format of this document):

client 192.168.1.10#39448: received notify for zone '1.168.192.in-addr.arpa' zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: Transfer started. transfer of '100.18.172.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: connected using 192.168.1.11#37531 zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: transferred serial 5 transfer of '100.18.172.in-addr.arpa/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: Transfer completed: 1 messages, 6 records, 212 bytes, 0.002 secs (106000 bytes/sec) zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: sending notifies (serial 5)

client 192.168.1.10#20329: received notify for zone 'example.com' zone example.com/IN: Transfer started. transfer of 'example.com/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: connected using 192.168.1.11#38577 zone example.com/IN: transferred serial 5 transfer of 'example.com/IN' from 192.168.1.10#53: Transfer completed: 1 messages, 8 records, 225 bytes, 0.002 secs (112500 bytes/sec)

Note: A zone is only transferred if the Serial Number on the Primary is larger than the one on the Secondary. If you want to have your Primary Master DNS notifying Secondary DNS Servers of zone changes, you can add also-notify { ipaddress; }; in to /etc/bind/named.conf.local as shown in the example below:

zone «example.com» {

type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.example.com";
allow-transfer { 192.168.1.11; };
also-notify { 192.168.1.11; }; 
};

zone «1.168.192.in-addr.arpa» {

type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.192";
allow-transfer { 192.168.1.11; };
also-notify { 192.168.1.11; }; 
};

The default directory for non-authoritative zone files is /var/cache/bind/. This directory is also configured in AppArmor to allow the named daemon to write to it. For more information on AppArmor see AppArmor.
