Hostmasters
To request changes to DNS records, contact <hostmaster AT sugarlabs DOT org>
Current hostmasters are:
- Bernie Innocenti <bernie@codewiz.org>
- (others to be added when this documentation is finished)
Registered nameservers
The following nameservers are currently registerted in whois records for our domains:
(FIXME: this is what it should look like after the current transitional mess)
| hostname | aka | location | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ns1.sugarlabs.org | lightwave | FSF, Boston, USA | 140.186.70.102 | 2002:8cba:4666::1 |
| ns2.sugarlabs.net | sunjammer | FSF, Boston | 140.186.70.53 | 2002:8cba:4635::1 |
| ns1.codewiz.org | trinity | Develer, Firenze, Italy | 83.149.158.210 | 2002:5395:9ed2::1 |
| ns2.auth.osuosl.org | - | OSU-OSL, Seattle, USA | 140.211.166.141 | - |
Note that ns2.auth.osuosl.org is not under our control and does not serve all our domains.
Editing zone data
We use distributed version control and admin scripts to arbitrate edits to the zone files and nameserver configurations. DO NOT EDIT THESE FILES LOCALLY, ANY CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN.
Checkout nameserver config
To simplify merging, each hostmaster pushes to a separate branch:
git clone root@lightwave.sugarlabs.org:/var/lib/bind/etc/bind ns git config --add remote.origin.push '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/USERNAME/*'
FIXME: use an unprivileged group "hostmaster" rather than root.
Edit zone data
Guidelines for editing zones:
- Please keep the zone files tidy, by following indentation style
- Add comments as needed to describe obscure records in the zone files
- Remember to keep reverse zones always up to date
- Bump the serials after each update!
Push changes back to master nameserver
We have a handy script to automate everything:
./
- You should see the slaves transfering the new zones you have modified
