#!/bin/sh
# Start/stop/restart the BIND name server daemon (named).

# Start BIND. In the past it was more secure to run BIND as a non-root
# user (for example, with '-u daemon'), but the modern version of BIND
# knows how to use the kernel's capability mechanism to drop all root
# privileges except the ability to bind() to a privileged port and set
# process resource limits, so running as a non-root user is not needed.
# But if you want to run as a non-root user anyway, the command options
# can be set like this in /etc/default/named:
#       NAMED_OPTIONS="-u daemon"
# So you will not have to edit this script.
#
# Please note that if you run BIND as a non-root user, your files in
# /var/named may need to be chowned to this user or else named will
# refuse to start.

# You might also consider running BIND in a "chroot jail",
# a discussion of which may be found in
# /usr/doc/Linux-HOWTOs/Chroot-BIND-HOWTO.
 
# One last note: rndc has a lot of other nice features that it is not
# within the scope of this start/stop/restart script to support.
# For more details, see "man rndc" or just type "rndc" to see the options.

# Load command defaults:
if [ -f /etc/default/named ] ; then . /etc/default/named ; fi
if [ -f /etc/default/rndc ] ; then . /etc/default/rndc ; fi

# Sanity check. If /usr/sbin/named is missing then it
# doesn't make much sense to try to run this script:
if [ ! -x /usr/sbin/named ]; then
  echo "/etc/rc.d/rc.bind:  no /usr/sbin/named found (or not executable); cannot start."
  exit 1
fi

# Function to find the user BIND is running as in $NAMED_OPTIONS:
find_bind_user() {
  if echo $NAMED_OPTIONS | grep -wq "\-u" ; then
    unset BIND_USER USER_FOUND
    echo $NAMED_OPTIONS | tr ' ' '\n' | while read element ; do
      if [ "$USER_FOUND" = "true" ]; then
        BIND_USER="$element"
        echo $BIND_USER
        break
      elif [ "$element" = "-u" ]; then
        USER_FOUND="true"
      fi
    done
  else
    echo "root"
  fi

# Seriously, don't run "rc.bind start" if BIND is already
# running or you'll get more than one copy running.

  mkdir -p /var/run/named
  # If we are running as a non-root user, we'll need to be sure that
  # /var/run/named is chowned properly to that user. Your files in
  # /var/named may need to be chowned as well, but that will be up to
  # the sysadmin to do.

bind_stop() {
  echo "Stopping BIND:  /usr/sbin/rndc $RDNC_OPTIONS stop"

  # A problem with using "/usr/sbin/rndc stop" is that if you
  # managed to get multiple copies of named running it will
  # only stop one of them and then can't stop the others even
  # if you run it again. So, after doing things the nice way
  # we'll do them the old-fashioned way. If you don't like
  # it you can comment it out, but unless you have a lot of
  # other programs you run called "named" this is unlikely
  # to have any ill effects:
  sleep 1
