4. Open the /etc/named.conf.u and /etc/named.conf.i files in a UNIX text<br />

editor and make the necessary changes.<br />

Note: If you use the /etc/named.conf.* files to change an existing master zone into<br />

a slave zone, you must also manually remove the old zone files in your /etc/<br />

namedb.* directories.<br />

5. If you have added new files, you must change the files to the correct<br />

Type Enforcement types.<br />

To do this, type the following command and insert the names <strong>of</strong> the<br />

file(s) you edited in steps 2, 3 and 4. For non-Internet (unbound) burbs,<br />

in place <strong>of</strong> x type the identifier u. For the Internet burb, in place <strong>of</strong> x<br />

type the index number <strong>of</strong> the Internet burb. (Use the region show<br />

command to determine the index number.)<br />

chtype DNSx:conf filename<br />

6. Increment the serial number after every change to the master files.<br />

7. Enter the following command to restart DNS.<br />

ndc restart<br />

Note: Any files created by named daemons, such as zone backup files or query log<br />

files, have types <strong>of</strong> DNSu:file or DNSx:file.<br />

8. Check /var/log/daemon.log for any errors.<br />

DNS messages, Type Enforcement errors and process limit errors are<br />

logged in the following locations on the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>.<br />

/var/log/audit.raw: Contains information in the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong><br />

audit format.<br />

/var/log/daemon.log: Contains traditional Syslog format messages.<br />

You can view the audit.raw file using the Audit windows in the<br />

Admin Console (See Chapter 18). The daemon.log file can be viewed<br />

using any text editor. (See Appendix A for more information on using<br />

the different text editors.)
