I feel like I am understanding the "how" of this DNSSEC stuff, but I'm not so sure about some of the "whys". This post is asking a bit of both.
I've got a static zone, nodns4.us., which is now signed. It's the parent zone to dynamic.nodns4.us., a dynamic zone. Is there any reason why I can't use the parent zone's KSK for the dynamic zone? Better yet, is there a reason why I shouldn't? If I do, what (if anything) does the parent zone need as DS for the dynamic zone? DNSKEY (the .key file as generated by dnssec-keygen(8)) goes into the dynamic zone via nsupdate(8) as per the bind-9.8.0/arm/Bv9ARM.ch04.html#id2607351 documentation. If using the same KSK, is that entered as a DNSKEY into the dynamic zone also? But of course as dynamic.nodns4.us. rather than the name as which it was generated, nodns4.us. (Maybe this is the problem?) I tried adding the dsset-nodns4.us. to nodns4.us as DS for dynamic.nodns4.us. But AFAICT the signature verification is failing. I bet my idea about DS was wrong. But my idea about no DS was also apparently wrong, because signatures didn't verify before adding DS records to the parent. How/where do you get these DS records with dynamic signing? My dsset-nodns4.us. was generated by dnssec-signzone(8). I see no mention in the ARM about this. -- Offlist mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0" or "not-spam" is in Subject: header _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
