This is great but I think either something has been changed in the directory setup or Manjaro just puts everything in different spots. Or maybe it expects you to build all of these from scratch which is pretty common with Manjaro/arch. There is no bind folder for me for instance. The conf is in the etc folder. For example. I use arch btw

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Thanks for the feedback, it's really appreciated I haven't used Arch Linux myself as I've only focused on the Debian tree since I got into Linux But looking at the Wiki, yes there is no bind folder wiki.archlinux.org/title/BIND

[@kwaapia]

David - Thanks for a clear explanation of this. Gone through several tutorials, but this is the most definitive for me. I also use pfsense. Does this negate the use of the pfsense DNS Resolver? Will be great if you can also do a video on how to add a second dns server for redundancy, dns over https and also ipv6.! Keep this up.

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it The pfSense DNS resolver is still useful as a typical IT design will have an internal DNS server, typically AD, for internal queries and that reaches out to a separate DNS server for external queries So in this case I have a Linux DNS server that forwards to the pfSense DNS resolver for Internet DNS resolution I'd prefer to not use the firewall for DNS but I've been waiting on a stable release of Bind that can do DoH (DNS over HTTPS) or DoT (DNS over TLS) And I've just noticed Bind 9.18 is available in Debian so that's something I need to look into As for redundancy, I use virtual machines so my DNS server would just spin up on another hypervisor but I'll add the other method to the list Unfortunately I've no rush for IPv6 as nobody where I live has really bothered with it I did a network design for a hosting provider back in the late 2000s for IPv6 but IPv4 seems to be here to stay as even today it's still not available for residential use

[@7Mirino]

Absolutely great video, really well explained and detailed. One thing I don't understand though: How does your "network" (i.e every computer in your lan) know which server is the DNS server? In this video, you start by already configuring your DNS server, and appear to have not set your DHCP server yet, nor do you show yourself setting the DNS server's address in your router's DHCP. Does this "magically" work and as soon as you finish everything done in this video, the entire network learns of this server and automatically start using it? Or is your firewall responsible for telling everyone the address of your DNS server, and that was done off video?

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

The video is only about creating a DNS server in Linux There are just too many possibilities when it comes to configuring clients so that wasn't covered I have some computers with static IP configurations for instance, so the DNS server setting is configured manually But how you do that depends on the Operating System and even then, it can be different depending on the version being used Some computers will learn of the DNS server through DHCP but there are lots of DHCP servers out there, and each will be installed and configured in a different way

[@7Mirino]

@@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone Aaaah I see! I'm just now getting into networking stuff, and I thought I could simply create a DNS server, then tell the router's DHCP to set that server as primary DNS and that would be ALL you'd need to do to get it to work in a big network. Guess I jumped a few steps lol. Thank you very much David!

Good tutorial.. but what about authortive domain name server?

[@SpookyLurker]

However, I get bad owner name on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with Bind9. What gives?

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Not quite sure what you're referring to The server is set up to be the SOA for a particular zone It does have additional functions, mainly to cut down on the number of DNS servers you'd otherwise see in a large network But as it would hold all of the records for that zone it should be able to answer all queries for that domain and so is the authoritative server If you're getting errors I can only suggest checking the configs again Although, DNS can also have problems with hostnames, for example it doesn't like underscores "_" in a hostname

[@brucenelm]

Hi, thank you for the video... I have followed through. My challenge is that i can not get other computerson the network to use the dns server... What am i doing wrong????

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

If the computers have a manually entered IP address then the DNS server needs defining there as well Although Linux computers tend to need an update to their /etc/resolv.conf file If the computers receive their IP from a DHCP server, then the DHCP server needs to be updated to send the IP address of this DNS server instead of what it was sending before However, you can also usually manually override the DNS server by doing what was mentioned for a static IP The easiest thing to do is to then reboot the computer for it to update and start using the DNS server

[@brucenelm]

​@@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone Thank you for the reply, That was helpful. I tested it and I could resolve my firewall. I was also trying to resolve the LMS that is on the network. I am using DNS forwarding(I have one Public IP Address and multiple servers on LAN) and utilizing my website's DNS to resolve IP addresses... That means, much as the servers are on LAN, one needs the internet to resolve them. That is why I am setting up a local DNS server... When I tried the DNS on the LMS, it gets stuck on the HTTPS... The server uses HTTPS which is handled by the firewall(The server cannot directly interact with certificate providers because of the firewall). When I try to load the pages on the server, it seems not to recognize the HTTPS and keeps loading... indefinitely. I am not sure why it works with the other DNS(The Website One) but not with the one I have built. Otherwise. I appreciate this video... it has pushed me a mil in the right direction.

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

I suppose it depends on the purpose If you have servers on the LAN then you point your computers to an internal DNS server to resolve a private URL If a server will be public facing then the URL needs to be a public one that a public DNS server will resolve Setting up a server that is both public and private can be tricky as you have to consider options like internal certificates as well as external ones on the same computer, intercepting DNS requests for public URLs, etc It's better to have internal servers and external servers Even if they serve the exact same purpose and it seems like wasting resources, it's just a simpler stategy

[@BassemBaraya]

Hi, Thank you so much for the detailed explaination. I have a question, is it applicable to use these steps to create a DNS server on cloud VPS to be used as my own DNS for my local network? I mean like a public DNS but it's only me who's going to use it.

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it As to using cloud services... I prefer a clear separation between cloud services and private services So servers in the cloud rely only on cloud services and vice versa Even security companies have been hacked so personally I'd say it isn't worth the risk Another thing that would put me off is if the Cloud service or even just my Internet connection went down. DNS wouldn't be available and my local network would stop working

Check /etc/resolv.conf and make sure it points to 127.0.0.1 Then restart the named-resolvconf service sudo systemctl restart named-resolvconf.service If it's not that then I suggest checking this web page as I haven't touched Ubuntu in a while and there may have been changes since I released this video www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/set-up-local-dns-resolver-ubuntu-20-04-bind9 It mentions 20.04 in the title but references 22.04 as well

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

It's possible the computer you're doing this from isn't pointing to the correct DNS server You'll need to update the computer's networking settings and point it to the DNS server you've created If it's the DNS server itself that has the problem then you'll need to update it's own network settings The changes work for the version of OS I used But if you're using a different version or a different Linux distribution other changes may be needed For instance, some Linux OS' might need you to update the nameserver entry in this config file /etc/resolv.conf file

I prefer to use a tier system for DNS resolution to keep things simple The clients only know about the internal DNS server, either through DHCP or static entry The internal DNS server then does internal DNS resolution for the clients But it's also configured as a DNS forwarder and uses a public DNS server for that So if the client needs a public FQDN resolving, the DNS server will do that on their part and cache the result for future client requests Either way, the client only asks the internal DNS server for an answer which avoids overlap Linux computers over complicate DNS resolution as far as I'm concerned and you have to check which DNS server they are actually using For some you need to check the following files /etc/network/interfaces Although Ubuntu uses netplan so have to check the file in this folder /etc/netplan However, they can ignore any DNS settings there and are storing the actual DNS server they're using in this file /etc/resolv.conf And it's not unusual to find the wrong DNS server entry in there

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Good question 127.0.0.1 is referred to as a loopback address Basically this refers to the computer itself So rather then sending DNS requests to 172.16.17.10 for instance which is the IP address on the real interface, we point to 127.0.0.1 Because there is no point sending this out to the actual network when the computer itself will reply And the reason for pointing DNS queries back to itself is because this computer is now our DNS server which can perform internal DNS resolution. It is also acting as a DNS forwarder for public resolution So it can resolve both internal and external DNS queries But rather than going directly to Internet root server, this DNS server will forwards public DNS queries to another DNS server that can do DoT to make public DNS queries encrypted and more secure

Hi i am having an issue with BIND configuration in redhat can you please help?

Unfortunately red hat is a linux distro you have to pay for It does have support though so I suggest you contact IBM

is the IP address used in this video, suppoosed to be same for my own, cos i cant reach the host fater i did the experiment

You'll need to use an IP address that works for your network

@@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone okay thanks Boss. Please one more question, my 00-installer.yaml configuration is different from yours. Mine is enop3. And don't accept the same format with yours, my Ubuntu is 22.04

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

@@urielukwueji9684 Different computers will have different names for the network interface so that is left untouched What does need to change in that file is the DNS server being used. We want that entry to be 127.0.0.1 so that the computer uses its own DNS server

When I enter "sudo netplan apply" I get a "Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory". I'm not sure how to fix this.

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

Are you using Ubuntu? If so which version? I ask because other Linux distros and older versions of Ubuntu don't use netplan to configure the IP address

@@felixmacias4577 Same version as mine and it's not an error I've run into although a common theme seems to be containers Even if I put a mistake in the yaml file, netplan only reports a fault in the configuration What happens if you use "sudo netplan try" There is a bug which feeds back false warnings but seems worth trying

Ipv6 is the shit you can run servers directly on cellphone or a 4g hotspot without port forwarding. A cool side note hotspot limits are in the downloads uploads arnt counted and a users download is my upload so you can download a large file without going against my data limits you just can't upload anything unless it's going directly to my phone where I get no download limits and you can have multiple ipv6 addresses on one network each with it's own 65k ports it also makes finding things harder using nmap if it's not on the same IP. hiding is always a good security measure and with virtual box you can have as many ipv6's as your computer can handle it's atleast 2gb ram per ip on top of the second ip because the first is your phone

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

I'm still waiting for a carrier in this country to offer IPv6 And I was helping customers set this up over a decade ago

Hi mr can you translate your video in Arabic l care about this video and l need to understand all information about this field but you are ltalking so fast it’s problem to me and thank you

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

I had to use Google Translator to translate the title and description, so I hope that helps Otherwise I suggest turning on subtitles If it doesn't automatically pick the correct language you can set this manually Click the Settings cog, then select Subtitles/CC Next click Auto-translate Then pick Arabic from the list

i want to host my website from my local pc, need some help, should i need to create dns server, for connecting to domain ??? Or not, will you please tell me steps ...of main points.

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

If this is for hosting on the Internet then I would strongly advise against it Public facing computers are best left in the cloud or some other hosting domain Web servers arw well known for being hacked and when a computer is hacked it exposes everything else on that network to the attacker

Sir, how to Public to internet

[@TechTutorialsDavidMcKone]

There are a lot of security risks exposing a DNS server to the Internet It's something best left to service providers And you can usually manage your records for free when you have your own domain
