The package caching-nameserver is integrated in the bind package!
So these two packages have to be installed:
# yum install bind bind-chroot
Than set named_write_master_zones 1
# setsebool -P named_write_master_zones 1
Allow queries on port 53 for DNS requests
# iptables -A INPUT -m state –state NEW -m tcp -p tcp –dport 53 -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -m state –state NEW -m udp -p udp –dport 53 -j ACCEPT
open /etc/named.conf and add
options {
#listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; any; }; (can be commented if there is no firewall between me and the DNS Server im talking to)
#listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; }; (can be commented if there is no firewall between me and the DNS Server im talking to)
