=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
B<makedns> - sets up domain name services (DNS) from the entries in /etc/hosts.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<makedns> I<options>
|
|
|
|
B<makedns> [B<-h>|B<--help>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
B<makedns> configures a DNS server on the local machine from the /etc/hosts file entries. It also uses the following
|
|
attributes set in the B<site> table as default values: B<domain>, B<forwarders>, B<nameservers>.
|
|
The domain value can be overridden by the B<-d> option.
|
|
The netmasks from the B<networks> table will also be used if not overridden by the B<-n> option. Only entries in
|
|
/etc/hosts that are part of a network listed in the B<networks> table will be added to DNS.
|
|
|
|
B<makedns> can only handle hostnames from a single domain, normally a private domain just for the cluster. The
|
|
typical cluster set up is for site.domain to be set to the cluster domain, site.nameservers to be set to the
|
|
cluster-facing IP address of the management node, and site.forwarders to be set to the IP address of one or more
|
|
nameservers at your site that can resolve names outside of your cluster. With this set up, all nodes ask the
|
|
management node to resolve names, and if it is a name that the MN DNS does not know about, it will ask the outside
|
|
world.
