====== Hackeriet authoritative name server ======

Hackeriet's authoritative name server is used for reverse DNS and the global zone ''hackeriet.no.''

The primary name server runs in context of ''nsd'' on ''blade.hackeriet.no'', and is backed by [[https://github.com/hackeriet/ns|a Github repository]].

===== Changing records =====

  - Make the relevant changes to the ''hackeriet.no'' or any other relevant zone file in [[https://github.com/hackeriet/ns|the Github repo]]
  - Update the serial for the zone:
    - Grab a Unix epoch timestamp using ''date +%s''
    - Paste the resulting value into the changed zones, replacing the first numeric value within the parentheses of the SOA record at the top of the file
  - Push your changes
  - Log in to ''blade.hackeriet.no''
  - Change user to root: ''sudo -i''
  - Move to the zone file directory and update the repository: ''cd /etc/nsd/pz && git pull''
  - Once the checkout is consistent, update the zone in nsd: ''nsd-control reload hackeriet.no'' (or any other zone name)
  - Verify your new record works properly: ''dig domain.hackeriet.no @ns1.hackeriet.no''
