Only *master* zones need zone files pre-populated, as the other types of
zones are populated by data named receives from queries and transfers.
Other types of zones require other options, however, to be usable. This
commit introduces minimal support for specifying *slave*, *forward*, and
*stub* zones.
To support signing of updates, TSIG keys can be defined using the
`named_keys` variable. This variable takes a list of objects with the
following properties:
* `name`: The name of the key
* `algorithm`: The signature algorithm (default: `hmac-md5`)
* `secret`: The base64-encoded key material
The *named* role now supports generating configuration for authoritative
DNS zones and DNSSEC keys. Zones are defined by populating the
`named_zones` variable with a list of objects describing the zone. Zone
properties can include:
* `name`: The DNS domain name
* `type`: The zone type, defaults to `master`
* `allow_update`: A list of hosts/networks or DNSSEC key names (which
must be specified as an object with a `key` property)
* `update_policy`: A list of BIND update policy statements
* `ttl`: The default (minimum) TTL for the zone
* `origin`: The authoritative name server for the zone
* `refresh`, `retry`, `expire`: Record cache timeout values
* `default_records`: A list of default records, defined as objects with
the following properties:
* `name`: The RR name
* `type`: The RR type (default: `A`)
* `value`: The RR value
Zone files will be created in `/var/named/dynamic`. Existing zone files
will **not** be overwritten; management of zone records is done using
`nsupdate` or similar.
The `named` daemon does not seem to pick up all changes to the
configuration file during a graceful reload. To avoid strange states,
the daemon is now fully restarted after the configuration file is
regenerated.
The *named* role configures the BIND DNS server on managed nodes. It
writes `/etc/named.conf`, using a template that supports most of the
commonly-used options. The configuration can be augmented by other
templates, etc. by specifying file paths in the `named_options_include`
or `named_global_include` variables, both of which are lists.
