Introduction

Dockerfile to build a bind dns server image with webmin for easy configuration.

Installation

Pull the latest version of the image from the docker index. This is the recommended method of installation as it is easier to update image in the future. These builds are performed by the Docker Trusted Build service.

docker pull sameersbn/bind:latest

Alternately you can build the image yourself.

git clone https://github.com/sameersbn/docker-bind.git
cd docker-bind
docker build -t="$USER/bind" .

Quick Start

Run the image

docker run --name='bind' -d -p 53:53/udp -p 10000:10000 \
sameersbn/bind:latest

Point your browser to http://localhost:10000 and login as root. A random password is assigned for the root user. This password can be retrieved from the container logs.

docker logs bind 2>&1 | grep '^User: ' | tail -n1

Please note that the password is not persistent and changes every time the image is executed.

Data Store

You should mount a volume at /data for persistence of your bind server configuration.

docker run --name='bind' -d -p 53:53/udp -p 10000:10000 \
-v /opt/bind:/data sameersbn/bind:latest

Upgrading

To upgrade to newer releases, simply follow this 3 step upgrade procedure.

• Step 1: Update the docker image.

docker pull sameersbn/bind:latest

• Step 2: Stop the currently running image

docker stop bind

• Step 3: Start the image

docker run -name bind -d [OPTIONS] sameersbn/bind:latest
