Building a Local DNS Server
In this guide we will be covering building a BIND9 DNS server on Ubuntu 19.10 Server. For more information about Berkeley Internet Named Domain visit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIND We utilized this DNS Server for the installation of VCSA since it requires DNS (if you want less headaches).
Step 1: Install BIND9
Step 2: Basic Configuration
edit /etc/bind/named.conf.local Replace "domain" with the name of your domain
Now create the “zones” directory as specified above
mkdir /etc/zones
cd /etc/zones
create the files as specified above
touch /etc/zones/db.aj.labz
touch /etc/zones/db.50.24.10
edit /etc/zones/db.aj.labz
edit /etc/zones/db.50.24.10
restart BIND9 to enforce the changes
/etc/init.d/bind9 restart
Step 3: Test DNS Server
nslookup 10.24.50.100 10.24.50.2
