Hi,
I have written all the steps I have done as well as possible in one file.
Here is my complete story, not for experts, but for people like me who
like to work step by step.
Installation of PDNS Recursor on Raspberry Pi
------------------------------------------------------
uname:
Linux gwebmaster 3.6.11+ #474 PREEMPT armv6l GNU/Linux
Debian_version: 7.1
------------------------------------------------------
I Installation of Package pdns-recursor
The package was not available per apt-get so it was
necessary to download source and compile it.
1) cd work-dir
2) su -
3) apt-get install libboost-dev
4) wget
http://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-3.5.2.tar.bz2
5) tar -xjf pdns-recursor-3.5.2.tar.bz2
6) cd pdns-recursor-3.5.2
7) ./configure
8) make all
The message
Warning: swp{b} use is deprecated for this architecture
can be ignored.
9) make install
10) if there is no program CHKCONFIG
apt-get install chkconfig
11) chkconfig pdns-recursor on
12) service pdns-recursor start
II Configuration of pdns-recursor
The Configuration files are situated in
/etc/powerdns
1) cd /etc/powerdns
2) cp recursor.conf-dist recursor.conf
In case of the recursor can not start on the given port
(default is 53) and another process also uses this port
it is possible to choose another port or to create a
new local network port.
vi /etc/network/interfaces
(or use another flat text editor)
insert:
auto lo:1
iface lo:1 inet static
address 127.0.0.2
netmask 255.0.0.0
network 127.0.0.0
broadcast 127.255.255.255
Store file and close the editor.
Restart the network service:
On the Raspberry it is a good idea to restart computer
because after the STOP of the service, there is no possibility
for another command while working via SSH connection.
To restart the pdns-recursor use
/etc/init.d/pdns-recursor restart
Some maybe important parameters in the recursor.conf file:
local-address=127.0.0.2,192.168.10.233
query-local-address=192.168.10.233
How to test if the process is running:
/etc/init.d/pdns-recursor status
Test if it works correctly:
/etc/init.d/pdns-recursor stop (if recursor is still running)
/usr/sbin/pdns_recursor --daemon=no --trace=yes
To make a query (initiated on the Raspberry Pi)
$ dig facebook.com A @127.0.0.2
; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-rpz2+rl005.12-P1 <<>> facebook.com A @127.0.0.2
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 2386
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;facebook.com. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
facebook.com. 900 IN A 173.252.110.27
;; Query time: 436 msec
;; SERVER: 127.0.0.2#53(127.0.0.2)
;; WHEN: Fri Aug 16 22:32:57 2013
;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 46
pi@gwebmaster ~ $
III Switching to use the DNS Server of ORSN
1) download from
http://www.orsn.org/roothint/
2) copy downloaded text to /etc/powerdns/orsn.hint
3) change /etc/powerdns/recursor.conf
hint-file=/etc/powerdns/orsn.hint
4) Make again a trace to see if it works:
/etc/init.d/pdns-recursor stop (if recursor is still running)
/usr/sbin/pdns_recursor --daemon=no --trace=yes
5) Resytart pdns-recursor
/etc/init.d/pdns-recursor restart
All work is done.

wo du ein fertiges Binary für armv6l bekommst weiß ich nicht. Aber
du könntest versuchen, selbst zu kompilieren.
apt-get install libboost-dev
wget http://downloads.powerdns.com/releases/pdns-recursor-3.5.2.tar.bz2
tar -xjf pdns-recursor-3.5.2.tar.bz2
cd pdns-recursor-3.5.2
./configure
make all
Ich versuchs auch gerade. Dauert allerdings gefühlt ewig auf dem Pi ;-)
The PowerDNS recursor cannot be compiled on arm architectures. It
needs a feature called swapcontext which is not available on arm. See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=579194
Frankly I have no idea what swapcontext is but FWIW I'm running package
pdns-recursor-3.3-5.1.armv5tel found in the openSUSE snapshot build for
Raspberry Pi.
I have pinged matthijs about this. I think he might retry building on
arm. It is possible that Linux on arm has learned that feature since
the restriction was put in place in the Debian packages.
Greetings
Marc
