NSD

Hi,
I have export my zone line to master.conf and slave.conf
The can I include this File to the nsd.conf?

Example nsd.conf

server:
ip-address: 1.2.3.4
debug-mode: no
ip4-only: yes
database: "/var/db/nsd.database"
logfile: "/var/log/nsd.log"
pidfile: "/var/run/nsd.pid"
include master.conf
include slave.conf

Example master.conf

zone:
name: "example.net"
zonefile: "example.net.signed.zone"
provide-xfr: 169.192.85.0/24 NOKEY

Example slave.conf

zone:
name: "example2.net"
zonefile: "example2.net.signed.zone"
request-xfr: 169.192.85.0/24 NOKEY

Greet

Hi Sebastian,

Yes you can do that, your nsd.conf has one mistake, you use 'include'
but NSD needs 'include:'.

So nsd.conf:

# same ...

include: "master.conf"
include: "slave.conf"

Your master.conf (is OK):

zone:
name: "example.net"
zonefile: "example.net.signed.zone"
provide-xfr: 169.192.85.0/24 NOKEY

Your slave.conf has a problem.
The request-xfr needs one address to connect to.
The ip-address of the master server. So:

zone:
name: "example2.net"
zonefile: "example2.net.signed.zone"

request-xfr: 169.192.85.33 NOKEY

You cannot give a subnet for request-xfr. The slave is not going to scan
a whole network looking for the master. :slight_smile:

At the moment the maximum nesting of include: directives is 10
(MAXINCLUDES define), so for include: files that include: files that
include: files that include: ... 10 deep.

No problems with the english,
