Setup DNS Server step by step in CentOS 6.3/6.4/6.5 / RHEL 6.3/6.4/6.5 / Scientific Linux 6.3/6.4/6.5
Setup DNS Server step by step in CentOS 6.3/6.4/6.5 / RHEL 6.3/6.4/6.5 / Scientific Linux 6.3/6.4/6.5
DNS (Domain Name System) is the core component of network infrastructure. The DNS service resolves hostname into ip address and vice versa. For example if we type http://www.ostechnix.comin browser, the DNS server translates the domain name into its corresponding ip address. So it makes us easy to remember the domain names instead of its ip address.
DNS Server Installation in CentOS 6.5
DNS Server Installation in CentOS 6.5
This how-to tutorial will show you how to install and configure Primary and Secondary DNS server. The steps provided here were tested in CentOS 6.5 32 bit edition, but it should work in RHEL 6.x(x stands for version) and Scientific Linux 6.x too.

Here are my test setup scenario

Setup Primary(Master) DNS Server
Setup Primary(Master) DNS Server
[root@masterdns ~]# yum install bind* -y
1. Configure DNS Server
1. Configure DNS Server
The main configuration of the DNS will look like below. Edit and add the entries below which were marked as bold in this configuration files.
[root@masterdns ~]# vi /etc/named.conf // // named.conf // // Provided by Red Hat bind package to configure the ISC BIND named(8) DNS // server as a caching only nameserver (as a localhost DNS resolver only). // // See /usr/share/doc/bind*/sample/ for example named configuration files. // options { listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.1.200;}; ## Master DNS IP ## listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; }; directory "/var/named"; dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db"; statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt"; memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt"; allow-query { localhost; 192.168.1.0/24; }; ## IP Range ## allow-transfer{ localhost; 192.168.1.201; }; ## Slave DNS IP ## recursion yes; dnssec-enable yes; dnssec-validation yes; dnssec-lookaside auto; /* Path to ISC DLV key */ bindkeys-file "/etc/named.iscdlv.key"; managed-keys-directory "/var/named/dynamic"; }; logging { channel default_debug { file "data/named.run"; severity dynamic; }; }; zone "." IN { type hint; file "named.ca"; }; zone"ostechnix.com" IN { type master; file "fwd.ostechnix.com"; allow-update { none; }; }; zone"1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "rev.ostechnix.com"; allow-update { none; }; }; include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones"; include "/etc/named.root.key";
2. Create Zone files
2. Create Zone files
Now we should create forward and reverse zone files which we mentioned in the ‘/etc/named.conf’file.
[A] Create Forward Zone
Create ‘fwd.ostechnix.com’ file in the ‘/var/named’ directory and add the entries for forward zone as shown below.
[root@masterdns ~]# vi /var/named/fwd.ostechnix.com $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA masterdns.ostechnix.com. root.ostechnix.com. ( 2011071001 ;Serial 3600 ;Refresh 1800 ;Retry 604800 ;Expire 86400 ;Minimum TTL ) @IN NS masterdns.ostechnix.com. @IN NS slavedns.ostechnix.com.masterdns IN A 192.168.1.200 slavedns IN A 192.168.1.201
[B] Create Reverse Zone
Create ‘rev.ostechnix.com’ file in the ‘/var/named’ directory and add the entries for reverse zone as shown below.
[root@masterdns ~]# vi /var/named/rev.ostechnix.com $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA masterdns.ostechnix.com. root.ostechnix.com. ( 2011071001 ;Serial 3600 ;Refresh 1800 ;Retry 604800 ;Expire 86400 ;Minimum TTL ) @IN NS masterdns.ostechnix.com. @IN NS slavedns.ostechnix.com. masterdnsIN A 192.168.1.200 slavedns IN A 192.168.1.201 200 IN PTR masterdns.ostechnix.com. 201 IN PTR slavedns.ostechnix.com.
3. Start the bind service
3. Start the bind service
[root@masterdns ~]# service named start Generating /etc/rndc.key: [ OK ] Starting named: [ OK ] [root@masterdns ~]# chkconfig named on
4. Allow DNS Server through iptables
4. Allow DNS Server through iptables
Add the lines shown in bold letters in ‘/etc/sysconfig/iptables’ file. This will allow all clients to access the DNS server.
[root@masterdns ~]# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables # Firewall configuration written by system-config-firewall # Manual customization of this file is not recommended. *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0] -A INPUT -p udp -m state --state NEW --dport 53 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 53 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited -A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited COMMIT
5. Restart iptables to save the changes
5. Restart iptables to save the changes
[root@masterdns ~]# service iptables restart iptables: Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ] iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ] iptables: Unloading modules: [ OK ] iptables: Applying firewall rules: [ OK ]

Thats it. Now the Primary DNS server is ready
Setup Secondary(Slave) DNS Server
Setup Secondary(Slave) DNS Server
[root@slavedns ~]# yum install bind* -y
1. Configure Slave DNS Server
1. Configure Slave DNS Server
Open the main configuration file ‘/etc/named.conf’ and add the lines as shown in bold letters.

2. Start the DNS Service
2. Start the DNS Service
[root@slavedns ~]# service named start Generating /etc/rndc.key: [ OK ] Starting named: [ OK ] [root@slavedns ~]# chkconfig named on
Now the forward and reverse zones are automatically replicated from Master DNS server to Slave DNS server.
To verify, goto DNS database location(i.e ‘/var/named/slaves’) and use command ‘ls’.
[root@slavedns ~]# cd /var/named/slaves/ [root@slavedns slaves]# ls ostechnix.fwd ostechnix.rev
The forward and reverse zones are automatically replicated from Master DNS. Now check the zone files whether the correct zone files are replicated or not.
[A] Check Forward zone:
[root@slavedns slaves]# cat ostechnix.fwd $ORIGIN . $TTL 86400; 1 day ostechnix.comIN SOAmasterdns.ostechnix.com. root.ostechnix.com. ( 2011071001 ; serial 3600 ; refresh (1 hour) 1800 ; retry (30 minutes) 604800 ; expire (1 week) 86400 ; minimum (1 day) ) NSmasterdns.ostechnix.com. NSslavedns.ostechnix.com. $ORIGIN ostechnix.com. masterdnsA192.168.1.200 slavedns A192.168.1.201
[B] Check Reverse zone:
