hey there. I am trying to write a shell script to
update the named.conf file on our secondary
nameserver.
I want the formatting to read:
zone "domain.com" {
type slave;
file "d/db.domain";
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
masters {
204.177.32.2;
};
};
with the "file" line reading like:
[first-letter-of-domain]/db.[domain-minus-top-level-domain]
The way I have it written so far is:
#!/bin/sh
for DOMAIN in `cat /tmp/ns1stuff`
do
echo "zone" '"'"$DOMAIN"'"' "{" >> /etc/named.conf
echo " type slave;" >> /etc/named.conf
echo ' file "'$DOMAIN'";' >> /etc/named.conf
(etc etc etc)
which gives you an output of
zone "domain.com" {
type slave;
file "db.domain.com";
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
argh. and I cant for the life of me figure out how to
make it all nice and pretty as it should be.
any ideas?
thanks so much in advance!
