Welcome to the Ubuntu Server 20.04 DNS Tutorial! In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of setting up a DNS server on Ubuntu Server 20.04. DNS stands for Domain Name System, and it is responsible for translating domain names into IP addresses.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
The first step in setting up a DNS server on Ubuntu Server 20.04 is to install the BIND DNS server. BIND stands for Berkeley Internet Name Domain, and it is the most widely used DNS server software.
To install BIND DNS server, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get install bind9
Once BIND DNS server is installed, we need to configure it. The main configuration file for BIND DNS server is located at /etc/bind/named.conf. Let's open this file with a text editor:
sudo nano /etc/bind/named.conf
Inside this file, we need to add a few lines of configuration to define our DNS zone. Replace example.com with your own domain name:
zone "example.com" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.example.com";
};
Save and close the file.
Next, we need to create the DNS zone file. Run the following command to create the file:
sudo nano /etc/bind/db.example.com
Inside this file, we need to define our DNS records. Here is an example of a basic DNS zone file:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns1.example.com. admin.example.com. (
2021070901 ; Serial
3600 ; Refresh
1800 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ; Minimum TTL
)
@ IN NS ns1.example.com.
@ IN A 192.0.2.1
ns1 IN A 192.0.2.1
Save and close the file.
Once we have configured our DNS zone file, we need to restart BIND DNS server to apply the changes. Run the following command to restart the service:
sudo systemctl restart bind9
Whenever we make changes to our DNS zone file, we need to update the DNS records. Run the following command to update the DNS records:
sudo rndc reload
Congratulations! You have successfully set up a DNS server on Ubuntu Server 20.04 using BIND DNS server. We hope you found this tutorial useful. If you have any questions or feedback, please let us know.
