#2156 new intranet zone doesn't show in bind web page
hi,
i added a new master zone to bind 8 and then i couldn't
edit it and it did'nt show up in the 'edit existing
zones' setcion of the bind admin page [
https://mywebmintest:port//bind8/ ]
i though i was messing thinge up here. basically my
desired dns server is i have a 'master' zone for the
local intranet machines, ans all other dns requests are
resolved by the upstream server.
we have no slaves, it's not public and we only have a
small number of machines. basically i'm just testing it
out to see if it's useful.
anyway, ramble aside, the new 'master zone' that i
added could not be edited in that i could not add
addresses etc, and then when i went back to the bind8
page it did not show up in the 'edit existing zones'
section.
i have upgraded all modules and webmin is the latest
and greatest also.
i checked the dir of the config files and there was an
entry for my new zone in the named.conf.local file and
there was also a file of the name mymasterzone.hosts.
i have since messed around and redone things numerous
times and eventually managed to get it to show in the
bind8 page of webmin by adding a db.mymasterzone file
and referencing ti from "/etc/webmin/bind8/zone-names"
i'll continue to try to get it working from here,
hopefully this is helpful to your maintenance/debug team.
regards
dara

now that i know more about dns,
when i add forward and reverse zones, and automagically
generated zone files' names are not being added to the
webmin zone-names file.
doing this manually seems to solve the issue
e.g. i added this to zone-names
zone_4=test.myzone 5 master * /etc/bind/test.myzone.hosts
zone_5=13.168.192.in-addr.arpa 6 master *
/etc/bind/192.168.13.rev
now both show up in the zone list and the reverse entries
are also correctly added modified.

It sounds like Webmin isn't reading the file
named.conf.local properly.
In your named.conf file, is there a line to include
named.conf.local , and if so what does it contain exactly?
