I've googled a bit and been unable to find the solution that I
need.
I have a master nameserver that has 4 views configured. I have a
slave for this that is currently using 4 IPs to slave the views.
This
works fairly well, except that the slave server is unable to
handle
NOTIFY from the master. So when I do an update to a zone I have
to
stop the slave, delete it's cache files, and restart it. The
slave
is
able to properly load zones, since it uses the correct IPs to
transfer
the zones, and it gets the right views, all is well.
I've read that BIND 9.3 can use TSIG for view selection, but all
I've
ben able to find is using TSIG for one view, and no TSIG for the
other
view. What I would like to do is configure four separate TSIG
keys
and do view selection based on which key is used.
Is this possible? And where can I find documentation on it?
Yes. Read the FAQ.
I read the FAQ, and there was a question entitled "How to share a
dynamic zone between multiple views?" that seemed to get me most of
the way there. I am now running my slave nameserver on one IP, and
zones transfers seem to work fine. NOTIFY also seems to work for
every view but the external view. This is somewhat perplexing to
me.
Tomorrow I plan on turning on logging for NOTIFY to see if I can at
least determine what is going on.
If you have any tips or common gotchas feel free to let me know.
Thanks,

You need to make the notify go to the correct view by using
appropriate server clauses at the view level. It's a matter
of making what the master sends match what the client expects.

Well, I found the issue. If the key is listed last in match-clients
it works.
// doesn't work
match-clients { key external; all; };
// works
match-clients { all; key external; };
Somehow I think either I've hit a bug, or I'm too tired to fully
understand how those statements are different, or even more likely,
that there's something else going on that just makes this work by
coincidence
It's very reproducible though. It also only seems to affect my
external view, all the other views, that match specific subnets,
can have the key specified anywhere in the list.
So to reiterate:
Zone transfers worked properly for all views
The slave updated properly upon receiving NOTIFY for every zone but
the external view.
Any update that resulted in a NOTIFY being set for the external view
was not picked up by the slave.
The differences between the external view and all the other views
was the external view was last, it had any in it's match-clients and
recursion turned off.
Thanks,

Well, still having some intermittent trouble with this. It seems that
about half the the slave missed NOTIFY for the external view. My
previous email was basically the result of it not missing NOTIFY
enough times for me to think it was fixed.
I've tried turning on NOTIFY logging, but I must be doing something
wrong there, because nothing is ever logged.
logging {
channel my_log {
file "/var/log/bind/named.log" versions 3 size 5m;
severity warning;
print-time yes;
print-severity yes;
print-category yes;
};
category "notify" {
my_log;
};
};
I've changed the category to default to make sure that it can log that
and it can.
I'm starting to suspect there's a bug in BIND I'm tripping here, or I
simply don't understand something fundemental. Zone transfers work
perfectly, and every view except for the external view responds
correctly to NOTIFY. It seems to be NOTIFY for the external view
which is intermittently broken. The only thing different between the
external view and the other three is it has match-clients any instead
of a subnet, it has recursion turned off, and it's the last view
listed. I can send along my configuration if that helps. Somehow I
think getting logging to work would help resolve this too.
Thanks,
Josh Paetzel
