-===== How to set up chrooted DNS on Ubuntu Dapper ===== 
- 
-Taken from [[http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p4]] 
- 
-Run 
- 
-  apt-get install bind9 
- 
-For security reasons we want to run BIND chrooted so we have to do the following steps: 
- 
-  /etc/init.d/bind9 stop 
- 
-Edit the file ''/etc/default/bind9'' so that the daemon will run as the unprivileged user bind, chrooted to /var/lib/named. 
- 
-Modify the line: ''OPTIONS=" -u bind"'' so that it reads ''OPTIONS="-u bind -t /var/lib/named"'': 
- 
-  vi /etc/default/bind9 
- 
-  OPTIONS="-u bind -t /var/lib/named" 
-  # Set RESOLVCONF=no to not run resolvconf 
-  RESOLVCONF=yes 
- 
-Create the necessary directories under /var/lib: 
- 
-  mkdir -p /var/lib/named/etc 
-  mkdir /var/lib/named/dev 
-  mkdir -p /var/lib/named/var/cache/bind 
-  mkdir -p /var/lib/named/var/run/bind/run 
- 
-Then move the config directory from /etc to /var/lib/named/etc: 
- 
-  mv /etc/bind /var/lib/named/etc 
- 
-Create a symlink to the new config directory from the old location (to avoid problems when bind is upgraded in the future): 
- 
-  ln -s /var/lib/named/etc/bind /etc/bind 
- 
-Make null and random devices, and fix permissions of the directories: 
- 
-  mknod /var/lib/named/dev/null c 1 3 
-  mknod /var/lib/named/dev/random c 1 8 
-  chmod 666 /var/lib/named/dev/null /var/lib/named/dev/random 
-  chown -R bind:bind /var/lib/named/var/* 
-  chown -R bind:bind /var/lib/named/etc/bind 
- 
-We need to modify the startup script /etc/init.d/sysklogd of sysklogd so that we can still get important messages logged to the system logs. Modify the line: ''SYSLOGD="-u syslog"'' so that it reads: ''SYSLOGD="-u syslog -a /var/lib/named/dev/log"'': 
- 
-  vi /etc/init.d/sysklogd 
- 
-[...] 
-  SYSLOGD="-u syslog -a /var/lib/named/dev/log" 
-[...] 
- 
-Restart the logging daemon: 
- 
-  /etc/init.d/sysklogd restart 
- 
-Start up BIND, and check /var/log/syslog for errors: 
- 
-  /etc/init.d/bind9 start
