DirectSlave - solution to add and remove zones on slave without DirectAdmin

[Richard G]

Have a look if line 109 looks like this:

    if(!defined($query->{param}{zone})) { $query->{param}{zone} = '';

 

[RayManZ]

It does not. I says:

if(length($query->{param}{zone})) {

 

[Richard G]

Maybe you got this part:

$query->{param}{zone} = '';

on the next line?

If not, did you downloaded the latest version? Because there were some changes made to the binarie in march.

 

[RayManZ]

Got:

$zone = $query->{param}{zone}

Downloaded today from the link in the first post.
http://mazur.net.ua/download/directslave-1.2.tar.gz

Changed 109 to what you said. Now i got no more errors. The named.conf file is written but the .db files stay empty.

 

[Richard G]

Oh that's odd, this should be in fact diretslave-1.3.tar.gz but that's not present. I will try to mail Roman and tell him that the old version is online and still has problems.

Do you get any errors when doing a manual rndc reload?

rndc reload

 

[RayManZ]

[root@uplink]# rndc reload
server reload successful

Works perfectly.

 

[Richard G]

Oke then I'm not sure why the DB files are not filling.
I presume you have adjusted your named.conf on the client server like this?

        allow-transfer { ip.of.your.masterserver; };

in the options section and also:

include "/etc/secondary/named.conf";

this last line should be the directslave named.conf where you pointed to in your directslave.conf.

I also send a pm to Roman pointing him to the fact that version 1.3 is not online yet.

 

[RayManZ]

Got it working now. But just like the other guy it got problems with the .db files. If i restart named it works. Seems like i need version 1.3.

 

[Richard G]

If it works after you start rename, then the line about reloading rndc in the binarie is not correct. See my reply #57 in this thread how this should look.

I just got a mail from Roman (the author) that he's almost ready with the newest version and he will release it on the forum this evening.

Hello everyone!

Just released a new version. See top of post.

> If i restart named it works.

Yes, you must restart named for the first time when directslave initially installed and configured. This is because named by itself must rereads his config files to include directslave secondary config file.

thanks for you work roman_m

Everything works great, but the zone files are not being created..

 

[Richard G]

You might have to use this command on your master server (and wait a few minutes after that):

echo "action=rewrite&value=named" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue

Also be sure that your /etc/secondary directory on your slave server is owned by named:

chown named:named /etc/secondary -R
chmod 755 /etc/secondary

 

[Petertjuh360]

I changed your command a bit to this:

chown named:named /var/named -R

It worked, thanks!

 

[Richard G]

Yep that also oke, it depends on the directory you are using. Since /var/named is use by named itself, I used the example stated in the documentation.
Glad to hear that it works now.

I'm seriously considering dropping support for my Master2Slave DNS Replicator and instead using DirecTadmin's Multi-Server Option and DirectSlave on slave. If you've got any suggestions or comments pro or con, I'd like to read them, so please feel free to post.

Thanks.

The only con ive found since now, and the only reason im not using it yet, is for the multiple users function.

Would be pretty nice to have ability to use different login data for different customers (as for DA LoginKey function).
