Configuring a bind.conf

I was trying to configure a named server on a Fedora 9 distribution, but when I try to run the server it outputs the following error:

loading from path_to_zone_file; no such file or directory _default/my_domain_name.com/IN

I tried to search around for the cause of this problem, but I was not able to find anything.

The solution turned out to be quite simple. Named looks within it’s default directory for its zone files, so it tries to find default_named_dir/path_to_zone_file. So you should just copy your zone files to your default named directory and give them the required permissions.

In this particular Fedora 9 installation the default named directory was “/var/named/chroot/var/named/”.

Iptables masquarading simple and working rule

This is a simple masquerading rule, to allow computers behind a Unix machine to access Internet.


echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -F
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQUERADE

These three lines stand for:
– allow “IP” forwarding
– flush the “-t nat” table to ensure that there are no other rules that apply to your policy
– masquerade the traffic generated by the 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255 network

You can add these three lines at the bottom of your “/etc/rc.local” file to ensure that after a reboot your machine will continue to masquerade.

Fujitsu Siemens – M1437G – reinstaling windows without the original CD’s

If you ever come across reinstalling the operating on a Fujitsu Siemens M1437G notebook without the original CD’s (CD’s were lost) you will find out that your Installation (in this example Windows XP Home edition) CD will not see your hard drive.

The solution to the problem is to install the SATA drivers during the install process. You can find the drivers on the Fujitsu Siemens website in the support section. After downloading it you can find the driver in the following folder “VIA ComboRAID Software Package V4.40a\drvdisk\i386\NT5”. The actual install can be processed in two different ways:

– In the first case you will need an external floppy connected to you notebook. Copy the driver on an floppy diskette. Start the install process. Press F6 when prompted to. Navigate to the driver on your floppy and continue. Now you should be able to process the install as usual.

– You can also slip-stream the driver into the installation. This can be done by creating a custom CD with Nlite. You can follow the instructions described in instaliing xp after vista article.
