Re: Configuring the location of named .jnl files

Hi Mark, We are only using update to provision the acme challenge as described by RFC 8555 8.4. Nothing else. If certbot (the acme client) behaves as it should provisioning and deprovisioning the resource record, then our zone file doesn't really change. I will ask my colleague why he feels our

Hi! BIND 9.11.5, I forward the request ("forward zone" or global "forward first") to another server and I get NXDOMAIN. Is it possible to process NXDOMAIN other than "redirect zone"? I just want to repeat the request to another forwarder. Dmitry

Yes, I was using nsupdate to test my implementation. For security reasons the directory that holds the zone file is readonly for named. So named couldn't create its journal file there. I misinterpreted the reference manual for the description of the "journal" command. Where it mentioned that the

Hi All, Wonder if you can help, I'm looking to input the BIND 9 JSON stats file to our OSS PM tool and I need some basic information on the counter types. Looking at the various counters I need to understand whether they are of type gauge (a snapshot in time) or counter (we need to calculate the

Hi Greg, a TSIG key is *never* transmitted. A sender uses a TSIG key to generate a secure hash over the DNS content being sent, and sends the hash along with the DNS content. A receiver configured with the same key can then verify that hash. If it can, then it can apply the DNS content. If

Thanks Anand. When using this TSIG solution is the key visible (clear) within the DNS packet being sent to the remote server or is it encrypted? Is this communication secure? eg if someone is sitting on the wire sniffing the packets, would they be able to extract the key ? Or is the security of

Hi Ivan, Visit [1] and search "journal" zone option. Similar as "file". At least BIND 9.16 has support, it is also in man named.conf manual page in BIND 9.11. I think that is what you were looking for. Regards, Petr 1.
