CHROOT-BIND Before starting This tutorial is written "only for a beginner,by a beginner".NOT FOR PRODUCTION Why we are using CHROOT-BIND The idea behind running BIND in a chroot jail is to limit the amount of access any malicious individual could gain by hacking BIND. It is for the same reason that we run BIND as a non-root user. CHROOT-BIND configuration ======================================== /var/named/chroot/---will be the root ("/") directory ie;/etc/named.conf will be /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf /var/named/ will be /var/named/chroot/var/named/ KEEP THIS IN MIND EVERY TIME.... we will not refer original location ie; /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf Will refer as /etc/named.conf ========================================= /etc/named.conf ========================================= options { directory "/var/named"; }; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost;127.0.0.1;} keys { rndckey; }; }; acl "safe-subnet" { 10.10.40.0/24;

Clustering Apche Using RHCS(Redhat Cluster Suit)

How to Install Redhat Clustering Suite For a cluster setup you need minimum two machines 1. Node1 2. Node2 In this setup we will install cluster management software on another machine called Manager The machine names and IPs are 1. node1.ansil.com --- 10.10.40.212 2. node2.ansil.com --- 10.10.40.213 3. manager.ansil.com --- 10.10.40.211 Be sure that you can access these machines through their names(FQDN).For this use a dns server/flat dns(/etc/hosts) Management Server 1. Configure YUM 2. Install Cluster management software Luci 3. Initialise Luci cluster manager 4. Set password for Luci admin login 5. Start Luci service 1.
