Newbie Question: Using PDNS on Different Servers

[SashaB]

Hello All,

Since we only use remote servers, we've installed PDNS on two dedicated serves and two VPS, all with different, geographically distributed, IP addresses. How do we assign PDNS to a specific IP address other than a local IP or localhost?

Also, is anyone else using PowerAdmin with PDNS?

Thank you.

Sasha

Hi,

You may want to look at the local-address directive in the pdns.conf. I
think that it what you are after.

To answer your second question: many people on this list use, or have
used PowerAdmin.

Thank you, Roland. That's what we thought but weren't sure and didn't want to edit the file without being sure. I'll take a look at that config file. Since you and others have used PowerAdmin, how do I edit the "inc.config.php" file point PowerAdmin to my server IPs instead of the local IP or is there another file I should edit?

Thanks.

Roland didn't say he was using Poweradmin. :)

There is no "inc.config.php" file in Poweradmin. There is a config file
in the subdirectory "inc/", which is named "config-me.inc.php" when not
yet edited. After editing the file, it should be renamed to
"config.inc.php" to have Poweradmin running.

Here you can find some more details on the details:

  <https://www.poweradmin.org/trac/wiki/Documentation/ConfigurationFile>

For more details on installing Poweradmin, see:

  <https://www.poweradmin.org/trac/wiki/Documentation/Install>

Please note, this mailinglist is about PowerDNS, not Poweradmin. There
is a dedicated mailinglist for Poweradmin:

Kind regards.

Hi,

im not sure about poweradmin, but i am using pdns-admin 1.1.7, because of a few random issues i had run into with poweradmin.

http://pdnsadmin.iguanadons.net/

If you are using the gmysql backend, all you would do (in pdns-admin) is change the DB access details in the settings.php file. So instead of "localhost" you'd specify the remote IP of your pdns mysql server, you'd then be able to manage the pdns server from a web server that is seperate from the actual pdns server.

regards

kalpesh
