Is there an automatic way we could use reloading the zone files rather than using rndc reload or named restart?
Within named, no. Furthermore a restart of named for changed zone data was never a good idea. Likewise, "rndc reload" only makes sense when numerous zones were changed at one time; otherwise you would use "rndc reload zone-name [view-name]".
Any methods or links which can be shared to help us reload the zone files automatically once we make changes to the zone files ( cron methods or shell scripts)
A different paradigm which would do this better would be to use dynamic zones (RFC 2136.) To do this you would set an update-policy for the zone[s] (or globally) and submit updates using nsupdate(8) or other RFC 2136 client. Ideally you would ONLY use dynamic updates to change zone data, but there's also freeze and thaw functions in rndc(8) for those who want to edit a zone file for Old Time's Sake. (The freeze will lose your zone updates history.) Dynamic DNS is covered well in the BIND 9 ARM. There are probably also some articles at the ISC KB. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
