Description Vicente Olivert Riera (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-09-25 11:04:06 UTC
I have a net-dns/bind-9.6.2_p2 working perfectly for my internal and external zones.
When I upgrade to the latest stable version in portage main tree (net-dns/bind-9.7.1_p2) my zones stop working anymore.

I can resolv external domains, like google.com , gentoo.org , etc. But any domain of my zones doesn't work.

This is a small part of the named.log when I make "ping router" , that should resolve to 172.16.0.1:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. upgrade to net-dns/bind-9.7.1_p2
2. follow the instructions of ebuild messages after installation
3. restart the server (/etc/init.d/named restart)
4. try to resolve any domain of YOUR zones
Comment 1 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2010-09-25 11:44:51 UTC
Please check your zone with e.g. named-checkzone.
SERVFAIL usually points to a zone/config issue but what happens if you use bind-9.6.2_p2-r1?
Is there anything else interesting in your logs?
Maybe enable some debug options.

Checking the named.conf
-----------------------
atom ~ # named-checkconf

No output. Everything ok.

Checking carrosses.com zone (internal view)
--------------------------------------------- 
atom ~ # named-checkzone carrosses.com /var/bind/pri/carrosses.com.internal 
/var/bind/pri/carrosses.com.internal:12: NS record '80.59.169.250' appears to be an address
zone carrosses.com/IN: NS '80.59.169.250.carrosses.com' has no address records (A or AAAA)
zone carrosses.com/IN: loaded serial 2010092401
OK

Checking carrosses.com zone (external view)
atom ~ # named-checkzone carrosses.com /var/bind/pri/carrosses.com
/var/bind/pri/carrosses.com:12: NS record '80.59.169.250' appears to be an address
zone carrosses.com/IN: NS '80.59.169.250.carrosses.com' has no address records (A or AAAA)
zone carrosses.com/IN: loaded serial 2010030801
OK

Everything works fine.

> Is there anything else interesting in your logs?

If I make "ping router" , it works, and this is the log file:

Comment 3 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2010-09-25 19:37:17 UTC
Ok, so if bind-9.6.2_p2-r1 runs fine as well then its at least not a gentoo/configuration problem.

Can you enable some debugging options in your logging conf? It might show us something interesting.
Is it only the one zone? Can you show me the zone please?
Comment 4 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2010-09-25 19:38:26 UTC
Or even better the whole config if possible.

This is my current logging configuration:

####################
logging {
        channel default_syslog {
                file "/var/log/named/named.log" versions 3 size 5m;
                severity debug;
                print-time yes;

                print-category yes;
        };
       category default { default_syslog; };

Do you want I change anything?


> Is it only the one zone? Can you show me the zone please?

I have two zones for one domain. One as internal (for my LAN) and one as external (for Internet)

This is the configuration of the internal zone:

Comment 6 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2010-09-25 22:19:31 UTC
Hm, works for me. I had to remove both
"carrosses.com. IN NS 80.59.169.250"
lines and then add "@ IN A xx.xx.xx.xx" as the named-checkzone already said.
I even wonder that named started at all since a added a config check by running named-checkconf which fails in this case.
Please fix your zones and try again, if this issue still occurs reopen the bug.

So..., for instance, in my carrosses.com file I have to replace this line:

carrosses.com.   IN NS           80.59.169.250

by this other:

@ IN A 80.59.169.250

It's right?

That means the same? 80.59.169.250 is my slave DNS.

Oh, replace the @ by ns.carrosses.com., sorry.
So in both zone files it has to be:

carrosses.com. IN NS ns.carrosses.com.
carrosses.com. IN NS ns.karl0sfx.net.
ns.carrosses.com. IN A <ip of the master>

So you have two nameserver, one master and one slave.
I assume the machine where your named is running is the master so add its ip to the third line of my example.
The slave dns in this case would be "ns.karl0sfx.net." (replace it by the correct domain)

An NS entry is usually a domain but in case its the same domain as the one from your zone file you have to define an A entry for it (ns... IN A ....).
