With ldapdns, you can provide DNS services to your network easily. The DNS |
| 33 |
records used are stored inside an LDAP environment. This document guides you |
| 34 |
through the configuration of OpenLDAP and ldapdns for this purpose. |

LDAPDNS is a small server that provides DNS services to your network. With DNS |
| 51 |
services, you can manage your hostnames in a central manner deprecating the |
| 52 |
tedious <path>/etc/hosts</path> updates every time a system is added/removed or |
| 53 |
has changed its host name. |
| 54 |
</p> |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
<p> |
| 57 |
The LDAPDNS package uses an LDAP service to store all DNS records (which is, |
| 58 |
simply explained, a line that contains the mapping between a hostname and an IP |
| 59 |
address). LDAP is a standard protocol to obtain information from a |
| 60 |
hierarchically represented knowledge base (directories). The most well-known |
| 61 |
LDAP service for Linux is OpenLDAP, a free LDAP implementation. |
| 62 |
</p> |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
<p> |
| 65 |
With this small guide at hand, you should be able to set up DNS services on your |
| 66 |
network with as little effort as possible. |

First, install <c>net-dns/ldapdns</c>. |

# <i>emerge net-dns/ldapdns</i> |

</pre> |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
<p> |
| 87 |
Next, configure <c>ldapdns</c> to host the DNS records for your network. We use |
| 88 |
<c>ldapdns-conf</c> which uses the following syntax: |
| 89 |

You should substitute the <c>127.0.0.1</c> IP address with an IP address that |
| 140 |
all hosts can reach and don't forget to use the domain name you want instead of |
| 141 |
<c>yourdomain</c>. |
| 142 |
</p> |
| 143 |
|
| 144 |
<pre caption="Example ldapdns-conf run"> |
| 145 |
# <i>ldapdns-conf ldapdns dnslog /var/lib/ldapdns 127.0.0.1 ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fsldapd.sock cn=Manager,dc=yourdomain ou=Machines,dc=yourdomain</i> |
| 146 |
</pre> |
| 147 |
|
| 148 |
<p> |
| 149 |
Now set the LDAP login password: |
| 150 |
</p> |
| 151 |
|
| 152 |
<pre caption="Setting the LDAP login password"> |
| 153 |
# <i>echo YourSecretPassword > /var/lib/ldapdns/root/password</i> |
| 154 |
# <i>chmod 0400 /var/lib/ldapdns/root/password</i> |
| 155 |
</pre> |
| 156 |
|
| 157 |
<p> |
| 158 |
Now configure ldapdns to use the simple authentication method and the cosine |
| 159 |
LDAP schemas: |
| 160 |
</p> |
| 161 |
|
| 162 |
<pre caption="Configuring ldapdns"> |
| 163 |
# <i>echo simple > /var/lib/ldapdns/env/LDAP_AUTH</i> |
| 164 |
# <i>echo cosine > /var/lib/ldapdns/env/SCHEMA</i> |
| 165 |
</pre> |
| 166 |
|
| 167 |
<p> |
| 168 |
You can optionally set an e-mail address for the service: |
| 169 |
</p> |
| 170 |
|
| 171 |
<pre caption="Setting a host master e-mail address"> |
| 172 |
# <i>echo YourMail@address > /var/lib/ldapdns/env/HOSTMASTER</i> |
| 173 |
</pre> |
| 174 |
|
| 175 |
<p> |
| 176 |
Add the service to the supervise scan and run the service supervisor if you |
| 177 |
haven't started it already: |
| 178 |
</p> |
| 179 |
|
| 180 |
<pre caption="Managing supervise services"> |
| 181 |
# <i>ln -s /var/lib/ldapdns /service</i> |
| 182 |
# <i>/etc/init.d/svscan start</i> |
| 183 |
# <i>rc-update add svscan default</i> |
| 184 |
</pre> |

<p> |

Now we need to configure OpenLDAP with the DNS schema. Open up |
| 197 |
<path>/etc/openldap/sldap.conf</path> with your favorite editor and make sure |
| 198 |
the following three lines are listed: |
| 199 |
</p> |
| 200 |
|
| 201 |
<pre caption="Editing /etc/openldap/sldap.conf"> |
| 202 |
include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema |
| 203 |
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema |
| 204 |
include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema |
| 205 |
</pre> |
| 206 |
|
| 207 |
<p> |
| 208 |
Bootstrap LDAP with the base dn you defined previously with <c>ldapdns-conf</c>. |
| 209 |
To accomplish this, we first create a file called <path>bootstrap.ldif</path> |
| 210 |
(it is just a name) and have it contain the following information: |
| 211 |
</p> |
| 212 |
|
| 213 |
