Hi Kees,

That worked, thanks a lot. The graphs are neat and informative. In the
meanwhile I encountered a problem with latest pdns-recursor that I
downloaded from ftp://ftp.monshouwer.eu/pub/linux/pdns-recursor/
Not very sure my problem is inherent to the latest pdns-recursor actually. I
run CentOS 4.5 with older recursor and pdns-server but here with CentOS 5.0
and packages for EL5 I stumbled. Anyways, I installed
pdns-server-2.9.21-2.el5.MIND.i386.rpm and
pdns-server-backend-mysql-2.9.21-2.el5.MIND.i386.rpm to build authoritative
DNS server and then downloaded and installed
pdns-recursor-3.1.5-1.el5.MIND.i386.rpm
Having done all config files I started both services, pdns-server and
pdns-recursor but the recursor part doesn't work. I've got errors in the
logs: 

====================================================
Apr  9 17:44:53 pdnstest pdns[20216]: Not authoritative for 'ya.ru', sending
servfail to 192.197.96.22 (recursion was desired)
====================================================

Here's part of pdns.log file:

===============================================
Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: Guardian is launching an instance

Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: UDP server bound to 192.197.96.10:53

Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: TCP server bound to 192.197.96.10:53

Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: DNS Proxy launched, local port 20845,
remote 127.0.0.1:5300                 
Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: Creating backend connection for TCP

Apr  9 18:26:07 pdns1 pdns[2196]: Launched webserver on 192.197.96.10:8080

===============================================

And these are essentials of my pdns.conf

==================================================
module-dir=/usr/lib/

socket-dir=/var/run/pdns-server

setuid=powerdns

setgid=powerdns

launch=gmysql

gmysql-host=127.0.0.1

gmysql-user=root

gmysql-dbname=pdns

gmysql-password=94615Pdns

recursor=127.0.0.1:5300
=================================================

Any ideas, what is wrong with my setup?

Eugene

Hello Eugene,

installing this package (and rrdtool) is basically all you need to do. After

installation it starts generating statistic files in /var/www/recursor.
By default only localhost is allowed to view them.
Edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/pdns-recursor.conf to remove this restriction.
