  2. DNS’ History Mystery • During the time of the dinosaurs (ARPANET) • Single host file managed centrally and distributed to all hosts on the ARPANET • Consumed lots ‘o bandwidth • DNS Is Born • Original Unix work done by grad students at Berkeley, later managed by the ISC • Hierarchical, distributed database • Each site responsible for their portion of DNS

  3. What’s In a Named? • DNS • Domain Name System • BIND • Berkeley Internet Name Domain system • named or in.named • Name of the BIND executable

  4. Defining DNS Definitively • Hierarchical namespace for hosts and IP addresses • Host table implemented as a distributed database • “Resolver” or library routines for querying the database • Improved routing of email • Mechanism for finding services on the net • Protocol for exchanging naming info

  5. DNS Goes Both Ways • Resolves names to IP addresses • Also resolves IP address to names (reverse DNS)

  6. Vixie’s Various Versions • Paul Vixie was the major maintainer for BIND version 8 • Version 4 is still in use, but should be considered obsolete • Version 8 provides many advances that improved efficiency, security and robustness • Version 9 is a total rewrite and supports threads, multiprocessors IPv6 and more • There was no version 5, 6 or 7

  7. What Kind of Bindage Are You Into? • Bind 4 used a config file called /etc/named.boot • Bind 8, 9 use /etc/named.conf • To determine if version 8 or 9 use: dig @server version.bind txt chaos e.g. dig @beast version.bind txt chaos

  8. Masters, Slaves and the Authorities • Authoritative Servers • Master server (keeps official copy of zone info on disk) • Slave server (gets copy of zone info from master via zone transfer) • Cache Servers • Never authoritative • Load “root” domain servers but all others are accumulated in memory only

  9. Binding Your Clients • Bind Client “Resolver” Configuration • /etc/resolv.conf • domain or search directives • nameserver directives (at most 3) • /etc/nsswitch.conf on some systems (like Solaris and Linux)

  10. Putting Your Server In a Bind • /etc/named.conf • Zone files • See page 438 for record types

  11. /etc/named.conf options { directory "/var/dns"; pid-file "/etc/named.pid"; fake-iquery yes; }; logging { category lame-servers { null; }; category cname { null; }; }; zone "." in { type hint; file "named.cache"; }; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "named.local"; };

  12. /etc/named.conf (continued) zone "91.159.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "tcnj.hosts.reversed"; }; zone "TCNJ.EDU" in { type master; file "tcnj.hosts"; }; zone "Trenton.EDU" in { type master; file "trenton.hosts"; };
