ddserver - Installation instructions

Welcome to ddserver.

Prerequisites

Before you start to install ddserver, please make sure that you have installed python2.7, MySQL and PowerDNS (including the pipe-backend) on your server.

On Debian GNU/Linux you will need to install these packages:

libmysqlclient-dev python-dev python-setuptools

On CentOS you will need to install these packages:

mysql-devel python-devel python-setuptools

Installation

  1. To install ddserver you can just run:
    python setup.py install
  1. After this step, ddserver installed to the following locations:
  • /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ contains the installed python packages
  • /etc/ddserver contains the configuration file
  • /etc/init.d/ddserver is a debian init-script for controlling ddserver
  • /usr/share/doc/ddserver contains the database schema and some readme files
  • /usr/share/ddserver contains static files like CSS, JavaScript, eMail-Templates, ..
  • /usr/local/bin contains the ddserver executables

  1. Create a new database (i.e. named ddserver) and a database user with usage privileges (at least SELECT, DELETE, UPDATE) for the database.

  2. Install the database using /usr/share/doc/ddserver/schema.sql

Note: When installing the default database schema, an initial user will be installed to log into the Web-UI. The default login is: admin:admin

  1. Copy the configuration file /etc/ddserver/ddserver.conf.example to /etc/ddserver/ddserver.conf and edit it to fit your needs.

  2. Start ddserver using /etc/init.d/ddserver

  3. Run the ddserver-recursor by adding the following lines to your powerdns configuration and restart powerdns.

    launch=pipe
    pipe-command=/usr/local/bin/ddserver-recursor
