1. New Nameserver
When adding a new nameserver to hcoop.net, or changing the values of ns[12].hcoop.net update the glue records at our registrar. Otherwise, hcoop.net may stop resolving.
2. Config
For Debian Squeeze, we're using the stock bind9 configuration. You'll need to open up a firewall port to serve dns.
3. Filesystem layout
On both deleuze and mire, BIND data lives in /etc/bind. This directory is seeded with the default files from the Debian bind9 package. Additionally, we add a zones subdirectory.
DomTool periodically deposits /etc/bind/named.conf.local, listing all of our hosted DNS zones and their master/slave statuses and configuration. DomTool also populates /etc/bind/zones with zonefiles referenced by /etc/bind/named.conf.local on any master servers.
4. Permissions
/etc/bind/zones should be owned by user bind, since BIND seems to like creating temporary files there. I've only yet seen this matter during updating of slave zone information.
