Hello Florin,
may i ask a question about named and chroot on mnf?
for me it seems that named is not chrooted
let me explain my thinking, correct me if im totaly wrong...
The backend proceses the sysconfig of named to
/var/lib/named-chroot/etc/sysconfig/named
now, if named starts, it isn't chrooted yet and look in
/etc/sysconfig/named for its root-directory and options
and after that named is chrooted and dont touch the
sysconfig-named-file again.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sysconfig]# cat /etc/init.d/named
#!/bin/bash
#
# named This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
# named (BIND DNS server).
#
# chkconfig: 345 55 45
# description: named (BIND) is a Domain Name Server (DNS) \
# that is used to resolve host names to IP addresses.
# probe: true
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
# Source networking configuration.
[ -r /etc/sysconfig/network ] && . /etc/sysconfig/network
RETVAL=0
prog="named"
# Check that networking is up.
[ "${NETWORKING}" = "no" ] && exit 0
[ -f /etc/sysconfig/named ] && . /etc/sysconfig/named
[ -f /usr/sbin/named ] || exit 0
[ -f ${ROOTDIR}/etc/named.conf ] || exit 0
start() {
# Start daemons.
if [ -n "`/sbin/pidof named`" ]; then
gprintf "$prog: already running"
return 1
fi
gprintf "Starting %s: " $prog
if [ -n "${ROOTDIR}" -a "x${ROOTDIR}" != "x/" ]; then
OPTIONS="${OPTIONS} -t ${ROOTDIR}"
fi
daemon named -u named ${OPTIONS}
---[SNIP]---
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
shouldn't now the sysconfig-named-template not moved to
/usr/share/naat/template/etc/sysconfig/ ?
(and adaptions to the events)
or
if /etc/sysconfig/named is a symbolic link
to /var/lib/named-chroot/etc/sysconfig/named
i think everything goes round... but it isn't on my mnf
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# ls -l /etc/sysconfig/named
-rw------- 1 root root 444 Nov 27 10:28 /etc/sysconfig/named
another thing is, the location of the basic zone-files (named.ca,
named.local). They are hold in /var/named/
shouldn't they are in /var/lib/named-chroot/var/named/ ?
or is it better to have a symbolic link too?
and as well the named.pid-file is writen to
/var/run/ and not to /var/lib/named-chroot/var/run/...
what do you think?
how i write above, perhaps i'm totaly wrong...
greatz
