Bind / DNS server running on DNS-323
Has anyone got bind (or another DNS server) successfully running on a DNS-323 yet?

Re: Bind / DNS server running on DNS-323
dnsmasq isn't an option since it does not allow you to maintain your own zones.
I currently have chroot'ed a bind 8.4.7 and runs fine.

Re: Bind / DNS server running on DNS-323
dnsmasq delivers entrys in /etc/hosts. In some cases (let's say just a few hosts) this maybe enough and it's easy to maintain. But if you say bind runs fine, ok. I'd prefer powerdns but without a database server like mysql or postgresql as backend that's not a big difference to bind.

Re: Bind / DNS server running on DNS-323
you right. for some cases it might be enough. if it is less memory consuming - good. but i guess currently there is no 'native' binary for DNS-323 available? even fonz's fun-plug 0.5 does not contain one.

Re: Bind / DNS server running on DNS-323
That sounds a good way forward for me.
Fonz - do you have a date in mind for the next update?

Are you mixing old and new packages? If you don't reinstall (like I suggest in the ChangeLog), you start mixing gcc42 and gcc41 toolchains. The gcc42 toolchain was broken, I don't know how well that works together.
What exactly was your problem? funpkg removing too many files on upgrade? If that's the case, it's because of a dangerous limit in busybox's comm applet. If you don't want to reinstall, do this first:
Code:
cd /ffp/var/packages rm -f busybox* gzip* tar* ffp-scripts* cd /path/to/new/packages funpkg tar*.tgz gzip*.tgz busybox*.tgz ffp-scripts*.tgz
You should then be able to upgrade the remaining packages using 'funpkg -u *.tgz'

I did not reinstall because i made some modification to al lot of scripts. especially because i have installed ffp on a flash drive. i did a wget -r --level=0 http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0. … /packages/ and then deleted the things i didn't want. then i did funpkg *.tgz
the problem was, that busybox was upgraded before gzip and tar was installed, but the new busybox version lacks the tar and gzip applets. i managed to get it working by untar'ing the packages over nfs.

Good point. That's a problem when not doing a reinstall. You're right, it's better to install tar and gzip first.
