|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<p><span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
is used to submit Dynamic DNS Update requests as defined in RFC 2136
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
to a name server.
|
|
|
|
|
This allows resource records to be added or removed from a zone
|
|
|
|
|
without manually editing the zone file.
|
|
|
|
|
A single update request can contain requests to add or remove more than
|
|
|
|
|
one
|
|
|
|
|
resource record.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Zones that are under dynamic control via
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
or a DHCP server should not be edited by hand.
|
|
|
|
|
Manual edits could
|
|
|
|
|
conflict with dynamic updates and cause data to be lost.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The resource records that are dynamically added or removed with
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
have to be in the same zone.
|
|
|
|
|
Requests are sent to the zone's master server.
|
|
|
|
|
This is identified by the MNAME field of the zone's SOA record.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="option">-d</code>
|
|
|
|
|
option makes
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
operate in debug mode.
|
|
|
|
|
This provides tracing information about the update requests that are
|
|
|
|
|
made and the replies received from the name server.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-D</code> option makes <span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
report additional debugging information to <code class="option">-d</code>.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-L</code> option with an integer argument of zero or
|
|
|
|
|
higher sets the logging debug level. If zero, logging is disabled.
|
|
|
|
|

Transaction signatures can be used to authenticate the Dynamic
|
|
|
|
|
DNS updates. These use the TSIG resource record type described
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
in RFC 2845 or the SIG(0) record described in RFC 2535 and
|
|
|
|
|
RFC 2931 or GSS-TSIG as described in RFC 3645. TSIG relies on
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
a shared secret that should only be known to
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span> and the name server. Currently,
|
|
|
|
|
the only supported encryption algorithm for TSIG is HMAC-MD5,
|
|
|
|
|
which is defined in RFC 2104. Once other algorithms are
|
|
|
|
|
defined for TSIG, applications will need to ensure they select
|
|
|
|
|
the appropriate algorithm as well as the key when authenticating
|
|
|
|
|
each other. For instance, suitable <span class="type">key</span> and
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="type">server</span> statements would be added to
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="filename">/etc/named.conf</code> so that the name server
|
|
|
|
|
can associate the appropriate secret key and algorithm with
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the client application that will be using
|
|
|
|
|
TSIG authentication. SIG(0) uses public key cryptography.
|
|
|
|
|
To use a SIG(0) key, the public key must be stored in a KEY
|
|
|
|
|
record in a zone served by the name server.
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span> does not read
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="filename">/etc/named.conf</code>.
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
GSS-TSIG uses Kerberos credentials. Standard GSS-TSIG mode
|
|
|
|
|
is switched on with the <code class="option">-g</code> flag. A
|
|
|
|
|
non-standards-compliant variant of GSS-TSIG used by Windows
|
|
|
|
|
2000 can be switched on with the <code class="option">-o</code> flag.
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p><span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
uses the <code class="option">-y</code> or <code class="option">-k</code> option
|
|
|
|
|
to provide the shared secret needed to generate a TSIG record
|
|
|
|
|
for authenticating Dynamic DNS update requests, default type
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
HMAC-MD5. These options are mutually exclusive.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
When the <code class="option">-y</code> option is used, a signature is
|
|
|
|
|
generated from
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
[<span class="optional"><em class="parameter"><code>hmac:</code></em></span>]<em class="parameter"><code>keyname:secret.</code></em>
|
|
|
|
|
<em class="parameter"><code>keyname</code></em> is the name of the key, and
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<em class="parameter"><code>secret</code></em> is the base64 encoded shared secret.
|
|
|
|
|
Use of the <code class="option">-y</code> option is discouraged because the
|
|
|
|
|
shared secret is supplied as a command line argument in clear text.
|
|
|
|
|
This may be visible in the output from
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">ps</span>(1)</span>
|
|
|
|
|
or in a history file maintained by the user's shell.
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|

|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
With the
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="option">-k</code> option, <span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span> reads
|
|
|
|
|
the shared secret from the file <em class="parameter"><code>keyfile</code></em>.
|
|
|
|
|
Keyfiles may be in two formats: a single file containing
|
|
|
|
|
a <code class="filename">named.conf</code>-format <span><strong class="command">key</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
statement, which may be generated automatically by
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">ddns-confgen</strong></span>, or a pair of files whose names are
|
|
|
|
|
of the format <code class="filename">K{name}.+157.+{random}.key</code> and
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="filename">K{name}.+157.+{random}.private</code>, which can be
|
|
|
|
|
generated by <span><strong class="command">dnssec-keygen</strong></span>.
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-k</code> may also be used to specify a SIG(0) key used
|
|
|
|
|
to authenticate Dynamic DNS update requests. In this case, the key
|
|
|
|
|
specified is not an HMAC-MD5 key.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span> can be run in a local-host only mode
|
|
|
|
|
using the <code class="option">-l</code> flag. This sets the server address to
|
|
|
|
|
localhost (disabling the <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> so that the server
|
|
|
|
|
address cannot be overridden). Connections to the local server will
|
|
|
|
|
use a TSIG key found in <code class="filename">/var/run/named/session.key</code>,
|
|
|
|
|
which is automatically generated by <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> if any
|
|
|
|
|
local master zone has set <span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span> to
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">local</strong></span>. The location of this key file can be
|
|
|
|
|
overridden with the <code class="option">-k</code> option.

<p>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
By default, <span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
uses UDP to send update requests to the name server unless they are too
|
|
|
|
|
large to fit in a UDP request in which case TCP will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="option">-v</code>
|
|
|
|
|
option makes
|
|
|
|
|
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
use a TCP connection.
|
|
|
|
|
This may be preferable when a batch of update requests is made.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-p</code> sets the default port number to use for
|
|
|
|
|
connections to a name server. The default is 53.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-t</code> option sets the maximum time an update request
|
|
|
|
|
can
|
|
|
|
|
take before it is aborted. The default is 300 seconds. Zero can be
|
|
|
|
|
used
|
|
|
|
|
to disable the timeout.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-u</code> option sets the UDP retry interval. The default
|
|
|
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
|
3 seconds. If zero, the interval will be computed from the timeout
|
|
|
|
|
interval
|
|
|
|
|
and number of UDP retries.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-r</code> option sets the number of UDP retries. The
|
|
|
|
|
default is
|
|
|
|
|
3. If zero, only one update request will be made.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The <code class="option">-R <em class="replaceable"><code>randomdev</code></em></code> option
|
|
|
|
|
specifies a source of randomness. If the operating system
|
|
|
|
|
does not provide a <code class="filename">/dev/random</code> or
|
|
|
|
|
equivalent device, the default source of randomness is keyboard
|
|
|
|
|
input. <code class="filename">randomdev</code> specifies the name of
|
|
|
|
|
a character device or file containing random data to be used
|
|
|
|
|
instead of the default. The special value
|
|
|
|
|
<code class="filename">keyboard</code> indicates that keyboard input
|
|
|
|
|
should be used. This option may be specified multiple times.

2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<p><span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>
|
|
|
|
|
reads input from
|
|
|
|
|
<em class="parameter"><code>filename</code></em>
|
|
|
|
|
or standard input.
|
|
|
|
|
Each command is supplied on exactly one line of input.
|
|
|
|
|
Some commands are for administrative purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
The others are either update instructions or prerequisite checks on the
|
|
|
|
|
contents of the zone.
|
|
|
|
|
These checks set conditions that some name or set of
|
|
|
|
|
resource records (RRset) either exists or is absent from the zone.
|
|
|
|
|
These conditions must be met if the entire update request is to succeed.
|
|
|
|
|
Updates will be rejected if the tests for the prerequisite conditions
|
|
|
|
|
fail.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Every update request consists of zero or more prerequisites
|
|
|
|
|
and zero or more updates.
|
|
|
|
|
This allows a suitably authenticated update request to proceed if some
|
|
|
|
|
specified resource records are present or missing from the zone.
|
|
|
|
|
A blank input line (or the <span><strong class="command">send</strong></span> command)
|
|
|
|
|
causes the
|
|
|
|
|
accumulated commands to be sent as one Dynamic DNS update request to the
|
|
|
|
|
name server.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>

<span class="type">newhost.example.com</span>
|
|
|

The prerequisite condition gets the name server to check that there
|
|
|
|
|
are no resource records of any type for
|
|
|
|
|
<span class="type">nickname.example.com</span>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there are, the update request fails.
|
|
|
|
|
If this name does not exist, a CNAME for it is added.
|
|
|
|
|
This ensures that when the CNAME is added, it cannot conflict with the
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
long-standing rule in RFC 1034 that a name must not exist as any other
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
record type if it exists as a CNAME.
|
2011-07-16 10:49:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(The rule has been updated for DNSSEC in RFC 2535 to allow CNAMEs to have
|
2009-05-31 00:11:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
RRSIG, DNSKEY and NSEC records.)

The TSIG key is redundantly stored in two separate files.
|
|
|
|
|
This is a consequence of nsupdate using the DST library
|
|
|
|
|
for its cryptographic operations, and may change in future
|
|
|
|
|
releases.
