Installing and Configure Slave DNS Manager Extension on Plesk
let’s install the Slave DNS Manager extension.
When the extension is installed we need to create a remote slave configuration. There is a config which we need to add to the remote server.
Open command-line, let’s install bind 9 using this command:
apt-get install bind9
Then let allow creating new zones with this command:
vi /etc/bind/named.conf.optionsRemote Slave DNS Manager Extension Configuration for zones
In this file in the options directive we need to paste the config from the extension page which allows new zones.
Copy it and just paste it.
We can check the status using this command:
systemctl status bind9Checking IP address
with “ifconfig” command we can get a inet IP address you need to copy it and insert back to the extension page.
We see that the slave configuration has been saved. So let’s check that nameserver has received zone updates from plesk for this. We can check system logs in the console using this command:
tail -f /var/log/syslog
Finally In the Slave DNS Manager extension click the “sync button”. In the console we see transfer status success.
Let’s also check that the domains own files have been create using this command:
ll /var/cache/bind/Also success we’ve managed to set up a nameserver with slave dns manager extension successfully.
