5.0 quality score

We run a couple of automated
scans to help you access a
module's quality. Each module is
given a score based on how well
the author has formatted their
code and documentation and
modules are also checked for
malware using VirusTotal.

Please note, the information below
is for guidance only and neither of
these methods should be considered
an endorsement by Puppet.

Puppet Forge Build Status

DNS module for Puppet

Installs and manages an ISC BIND DNS server with basic zones, primarily for The Foreman.

Usage

Include the top level dns class to fully configure the service.

include dns

A key is set up to allow dynamic DNS updates, stored in rndc.key. This is used by Foreman's smart proxy to add and remove records on the fly.

Zones can be created with the dns::zone resource:

dns::zone { 'example.com': }

Keys can be created with the dns::key resource:

dns::key {'dns-key':}

Slaves can also be configured by setting allow_transfer in the master's zone and setting zonetype => 'slave' in the slave's zone.

Logging can be added with the dns::logging_categories and dns::logging_channels defined types. The following Hiera example shows all the available options:

dns::logging_categories:
  unmatched:
    channels:
      - 'test_file'
      - 'test_stderr'
      - 'test_syslog'
      - 'test_null'
dns::logging_channels:
  test_file:
    file_path: '/var/log/named/test.log'
    file_versions: 3
    file_size: '5m'
    log_type: 'file'
    print_category: 'yes'
    print_severity: 'yes'
    print_time: 'yes'
    severity: 'dynamic'
  test_null:
    log_type: 'null'
    print_category: 'yes'
    print_severity: 'yes'
    print_time: 'yes'
    severity: 'dynamic'
  test_stderr:
    log_type: 'stderr'
    print_category: 'yes'
    print_severity: 'yes'
    print_time: 'yes'
    severity: 'dynamic'
  test_syslog:
    log_type: 'syslog'
    print_category: 'yes'
    print_severity: 'yes'
    print_time: 'yes'
    severity: 'dynamic'
    syslog_facility: 'auth'
