DNS master-slave Securing zone transfer with TSIG
# yum install bind-chroot
From Primary DNS
# dnssec-keygen -a HMAC-MD5 -b 128 -n HOST master-slave
Kmaster-slave.+157+50029
The output tells us the name of the file containing our new key: in this case
Kmaster-slave.+157+50029.private. The numbers are the DNSSEC algorithm
(157=HMACMD5), and the key's fingerprint (50029) which will probably be different on your machine
From Kmaster-slave+157.50029.private we will extract the shared key:
# cat Kmaster-slave+157.50029.private
Private-key-format: v1.2
Algorithm: 157 (HMAC_MD5)
Key: axdafafFTdafaCSDF090DSDs==
The key here is axdafafFTdafaCSDF090DSDs==; this will be different in your file. Keep track of this file;
we will need it for testing our configuration later.
On both the master and slave name server, create a new file called /var/named/chroot/etc/transfer.key with
the following contents:
key "master-slave." {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret "axdafafFTdafaCSDF090DSDs==";
};
Protect the contents of the transfer.key so only the nameserver can read it and only root can write to it:
# chown root:named /var/named/chroot/etc/transfer.key
# chmod 640 /var/named/chroot/etc/transfer.key
# ln -s /var/named/chroot/etc/transfer.key /etc/transfer.key
In /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf on both the master and slave server, add the following lines at the very top of the file
include "/etc/transfer.key";
