NSD as secondary nameserver

this guide is obsoleted by its ansible playbook https://pub.nethence.com/system/ansible/playbooks/nsd/

warningwarning

make sure you declare both servers as NS –and– also provide glue records for those

setup – primarysetup – primary

see nsd then also prepare the secret for the sync

assuming you already generated a secret for sending/receiving updates

setup – secondarysetup – secondary

cd /etc/nsd/
vi nsd.conf

server:
(same as primary)

remote-control:
(same but points to local keys)

key:
(same as primary - yes both nodes need to share that secret)

pattern:
    name: "primary"
    allow-notify: PRIMARY-IP sync
    request-xfr: AXFR PRIMARY-IP sync

zone:
    ...
    include-pattern: "primary"

## acceptance<a id="acceptance" class="hide">acceptance</a>

make a dummy change on the primary and watch the logs

_on both sides_

    tail -F /var/log/syslog

_on the primary_

; sync test pouet IN A 1.2.3.4 ```

nsd-control reload $zone
