Hi I understand that I need the below snip in my /etc/named.conf -----------snip -----------
// Two corporate subnets we wish to allow queries from. acl corpnets { 192.168.4.0/24; 192.168.7.0/24; }; options { // Working directory directory "/etc/namedb"; allow-query { corpnets; }; }; // Provide a reverse mapping for the loopback // address 127.0.0.1 zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "localhost.rev"; notify no; }; ---------------- What else do I need along with the above to function as a caching only name server. looks like the default /etc/named.conf is designed to run much more than caching server ----------default------- options { listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; }; 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; }; 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"; }; include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones"; include "/etc/named.root.key"; ------------------- also, Is it possible to have this running in my client machines ? Thanks, Vijay
