Internet access via gateway

Hi,
Until now, we used PPP via an ISDN modem to connect our server to
the internet. The ISDN ip-up/down scripts in /etc/ppp add ippp0
as the default route. From that point on we can for instance get mail
via fetchmail.
Now we have a ADSL... (1 Reply)

zoneserver
ZONESERVER(8) zoneserver ZONESERVER(8)
NAME
zoneserver - handle zone transfers and other TCP functions for MaraDNS
DESCRIPTION
zoneserver listens on port 53/tcp and handles DNS zone transfers and any DNS query done over TCP instead of UDP. zoneserver uses a
configuration file, /etc/mararc by default, to determine its parameters.
USAGE
zoneserver -f pointer_to_mararc_file
OPTIONS
-f Specifies the location of the configuration file. MaraDNS uses the same configuration file for both the main dns server and the
zoneserver.
CONFIGURATION FILE FORMAT
The file format for the mararc file can be found in the mararc(5) manual page. In particular, the zoneserver uses the zone_transfer_acl,
tcp_convert_acl, tcp_convert_server, bind_address, and recursive_acl mararc parameters.
EXAMPLE MARARC FILE
In this example mararc file, which is used both by maradns and zoneserver, we allow 10.1.2.3, 10.1.14.7, and 192.168.116.{any} to transfer
zones, and we allow anyone on the internet to perform TCP queries. The only zone served in this example is example.com:
ipv4_bind_addresses = "10.1.1.1" # Our IP
tcp_convert_server = "10.1.1.1" # IP of UDP DNS server
tcp_convert_acl = "0.0.0.0/0" # Anyone may do DNS-over-TCP
chroot_dir = "/etc/maradns" # Where zone files are
csv2 = {} # Initialize list of zone files
csv2["example.com."] = "db.example.com" # example.com zone file
# The next line is a list of who can transfer zones from us
zone_transfer_acl = "10.1.2.3, 10.1.14.7, 192,168.116.0/24"

BUGS
zoneserver assumes that the authoritative NS records are immediately after the SOA record, and that there is at least one non-NS between
that last authority NS record for the zone and the first delegation NS record.
IXFR requests are incremental zone transfers, meaning that the DNS server should only display records changed since the last IXFR request.
zoneserver, however, treats an IXFR as if it were an AXFR request, outputting all of the records for the zone in question.
zoneserver closes the TCP connection after transferring the requested zone.
If an unauthorized client attempts to connect to the zoneserver, zoneserver immediately disconnects the unauthorized client.
