\fIfile\fP - enables serving zone data from an RFC 1035-style master file.
|
|
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fIfile\fP plugin is used for an "old-style" DNS server. It serves from a preloaded file that exists
|
|
on disk. If the zone file contains signatures (i.e., is signed using DNSSEC), correct DNSSEC answers
|
|
are returned. Only NSEC is supported! If you use this setup \fIyou\fP are responsible for re-signing the
|
|
zonefile.

\fBZONES\fP zones it should be authoritative for. If empty, the zones from the configuration block

\fB\fCreload\fR interval to perform a reload of the zone if the SOA version changes. Default is one minute.
|
|
Value of \fB\fC0\fR means to not scan for changes and reload. For example, \fB\fC30s\fR checks the zonefile every 30 seconds
|
|
and reloads the zone when serial changes.

If you need outgoing zone transfers, take a look at the \fItransfer\fP plugin.

Or use a single zone file for multiple zones:
|
|

|

\&. {

Note that if you have a configuration like the following you may run into a problem of the origin
|
|
not being correctly recognized:
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
.RS
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
\&. {
|
|
file db.example.org

.RE

We omit the origin for the file \fB\fCdb.example.org\fR, so this references the zone in the server block,
|
|
which, in this case, is the root zone. Any contents of \fB\fCdb.example.org\fR will then read with that
|
|
origin set; this may or may not do what you want.
|
|
It's better to be explicit here and specify the correct origin. This can be done in two ways:
|
|
|
|

|
|
.RS
|
|
|
|
.nf

See the \fIloadbalance\fP plugin if you need simple record shuffling. And the \fItransfer\fP plugin for zone
|
|
transfers. Lastly the \fIroot\fP plugin can help you specificy the location of the zone files.
