$Id: INSTALL,v 1.5 2003/06/11 15:44:47 boll Exp $ In the following, I am assuming that you have already configured pdns to work with MySQL. To install zonemanip, please do the following on a Debian GNU/Linux system: $ tar -zxvf zonemanip-<version>.tar.gz # apt-get install libdbi0-dev libdbd-mysql libshhopt1-dev $ cd zonemanip $ mysql -u <youruser> -p<yourpass> <yourdb> < db.sql $ ./configure $ make # make install Because pdns.conf (which contains the username and password used to access the database) is readable only by root, zonemanip needs to run suid root, so you need to do the following: # chmod 4755 /usr/bin/zonemanip OR: add one of the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://people.debian.org/~boll woody main deb http://people.debian.org/~boll sid main and do: # apt-get install zonemanip $ mysql -u <youruser> -p <yourpass> <yourdb> < db.sql If you are not on a Debian GNU/Linux machine, you need to adapt the above description to suit your needs. The code should however compile and run on most unixes, please report errors and successes to me at boll@fork.dk. That's it.
