Question Slave DNS Server - Separate Folder For Zone Files?

LaneP

New Pleskian
Hi all

We've provisioned a new instance of Plesk and installed the Slave DNS Manager extension. We've configured a slave DNS server and confirmed the sync is working between the two. So far, so good.

On the Slave DNS server we would like to have a separate folder for the zone files from Plesk. It's acting as a slave for other servers and we want to quickly identify the origin of the zone file using separate folders.

Current Folder: /var/named
New Folder: /var/named/slaves_plesk

Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thank you kindly.
 
Hi LaneP,

I have seen a source code of Slave DNS Manager (plesk/ext-slave-dns-manager), looks like if you change 'file \\\"{$domain}\\\"' to something with a directory, it should work; but be careful, it is your own risk :)

If you create a good solution with the ability to configure directory through GUI, do not hesitate to create a pull request in GitHub.
