33.2.2 Expert Configuration
After starting the module, YaST opens a window displaying several configuration op-
tions. Completing it results in a DNS server configuration with the basic functions in
place:
Starting the DNS Server
Under Service Start, define whether the DNS server should be started when the system
boots (during booting the system) or manually. To start the DNS server immediately,
select Start DNS Server Now. To stop the DNS server, select Stop DNS Server Now.
To save the current settings, select Save Settings and Restart DNS Server Now. You
can open the DNS port in the firewall with Open Port in Firewall and modify the firewall
settings with Firewall Details.
By selecting LDAP Support Active, the zone files are managed by an LDAP database.
Any changes to zone data written to the LDAP database are picked up by the DNS
server as soon as it is restarted or prompted to reload its configuration.
