Bind DDNS
Description
Install and configure ISC Bind https://www.isc.org/downloads/bind/ with
full Dynamic DNS support.
On client side, install nsupdate, provide a generic provider and a recipe
to update DNS entries.
Requirements
Cookbooks and gems
Declared in [metadata.rb](metadata.rb) and in [Gemfile](Gemfile).
Platforms
- RHEL Family 7, tested on Centos
Note: it should work fine on Debian 8 but the official docker image does not
allow systemd to work easily, so it could not be tested.
Usage
Easy Setup
Add recipe[bind-ddns::server]
in your run-list to install and configure
Bind. Configuration will be fetched from attributes options
, zones
and
keys
.
To add a client, add recipe[bind-ddns::client]
. nsupdate recipe will
update all records defined in records
.
To see an example, look at [.kitchen.yml](.kitchen.yml).
Test
This cookbook is fully tested through the installation of a server and a client
in docker hosts. This uses kitchen, docker and some monkey-patching.
If you run kitchen list, you will see 2 suites, Each corresponds to a different
server:
- server-ddns-centos-7: Bind server
- client-ddns-centos-7: DNS client with nsupdate
For more information, see [.kitchen.yml](.kitchen.yml) and [test](test)
directory.
Attributes
Configuration is done by overriding default attributes. All configuration keys
have a default defined in [attributes/default.rb](attributes/default.rb).
Please read it to have a comprehensive view of what and how you can configure
this cookbook behavior.
Note: for fields needing an IP address, it is possible to set an interface
name, which will be resolved to its first non-local address.
Specific configuration (client or server)
To allow clients and servers to share a same role, it is possible to define
specific configuration keys applicable to one of the status (client or server).
Specific configurations can be any of the attributes defined in
[attributes/default.rb](attributes/default.rb) but in either "client-config"
or "server-config" sub-tree.
A node is declared as server if its FQDN is included in attribute
"['bind-ddns']['servers']" defined as an array. Else, it is considered
as a client.
Recipes
default
Call init and then, following the node status, call client or
server recipe.
init
Determine if the current machine is a server or a client. Write the result
in "run_state['bind-ddns']['status']". Then merge default and specific
(client or server) configurations and store the result in
"run_state['bind-ddns']['config']".
Note: init is included in all recipes.
package
Install Bind package.
package_client
Install Bind utils package.
config
Configure Bind server: named.conf, keys and zones.
Then check configuration through named-checkconf.
service
Enable and start named service, subscribes on named-checkconf resource.
nsupdate
Call bind-ddns default provider (which call nsupdate command) based on
attribute records
. See [.kitchen.yml](.kitchen.yml) for more information.
Replace some missing configuration attributes:
- domain (name attribute) by the FQDN
- data by the ip defined in "node[:ipaddress]"
- zone by the tail part of the domain
resolvconf
Set resolv.conf using server
attribute.
client
Install Bind utils, configure resolv.conf if requested (by attribute
set_resolv_conf
) with recipe resolvconf and call nsupdate recipe.
server
Install, configure and launch Bind. Then call client recipe.
Resources/Providers
default
Add, update or remove a DNS record using nsupdate. Read the
[resources/default.rb](resource file) for more details.
Simple example:
ruby
bind_ddns 'test.foo' do
server 'ns.foo'
data "10.11.12.13"
keyname 'foo'
secret 'XXXX'
end
Use action :delete
to delete an entry (default is :add).
