If +# your distribution does not provide a variable like KEYTAB_FILE to pass a +# keytab file to the BIND daemon, a workaround is to place the following line in +# BIND's sysconfig file or in the init script for BIND: +export KRB5_KTNAME="${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS}" + +# - Set appropriate ownership and permissions on the ${DNS_KEYTAB} file. Note +# that most distributions have BIND configured to run under a non-root user +# account. For example, Fedora 9 runs BIND as the user "named" once the daemon +# relinquishes its rights. Therefore, the file ${DNS_KEYTAB} must be readable +# by the user that BIND run as. If BIND is running as a non-root user, the +# "${DNS_KEYTAB}" file must have its permissions altered to allow the daemon to +# read it. Under Fedora 9, execute the following commands: +chgrp named ${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS} +chmod g+r ${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS} + +# - Ensure the BIND zone file(s) that will be dynamically updated are in a +# directory where the BIND daemon can write. When BIND performs dynamic +# updates, it not only needs to update the zone file itself but it must also +# create a journal (.jnl) file to track the dynamic updates as they occur. +# Under Fedora 9, the /var/named directory can not be written to by the "named" +# user. However, the directory /var/named/dynamic directory does provide write +# access. Therefore the zone files were placed under the /var/named/dynamic +# directory. The file directives in both example zone statements at the +# beginning of this file were changed by prepending the directory "dynamic/". + +# - If SELinux is enabled, ensure that all files have the appropriate SELinux +# file contexts. The ${DNS_KEYTAB} file must be accessible by the BIND daemon +# and should have a SELinux type of named_conf_t. This can be set with the +# following command: +chcon -t named_conf_t ${DNS_KEYTAB_ABS} |
