BIND also know as the “Berkeley Internet Name Domain” is one of the most popular Domain Name System (DNS) today. It an open-source and provides DNS services on Linux operating systems. Generally, it helps you to resolve a fully qualified domain name into an IP address or IP address to a domain name. It can be used as an authoritative name server and provides several features like load balancing, dynamic update, split DNS, etc.
In this tutorial, we will show you how to set up a private DNS server with BIND on CentOS 8. On a related note, take a look at our tutorial on installing and configuring a simple DNS (BIND) server on Debian 9.
In the following tutorial, we’re going to go through the process of installing and configuring a simple DNS (BIND) server on your Debian 9 VPS. This will allow you to host/manage the DNS records for your domain/s.
Before we proceed with the setup process, let’s first talk about what the Domain Name System (DNS) is, as well as what a DNS server is.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is technology that resolves the domain names/hostnames to IP addresses so that we can easily access the services using domain names instead of using IP addresses. For example, if you wanted to visit a website through its IP address, you’d have to enter a specific IP in the web browser’s address bar. But with the DNS, you can simply type “your_domain.com” to get there much more quickly. It’s easier to remember, and it’s more user-friendly. That’s why people consider the DNS as “the phonebook of the Internet”. Nobody wants to remember an IP, but everyone can and does remember a domain name. A Domain Name System uses DNS servers for its functionality, so a DNS server is any authoritative DNS host registered to join the Domain Name System (DNS).

In this tutorial, we will show you how to install PowerDNS and Poweradmin on an Ubuntu 14.04 VPS with Nginx, MariaDB and PHP-FPM. PowerDNS is an open source, high-performance and reliable DNS server, written in C++ and can be used as an alternative to BIND. Poweradmin is a free, web-based administration tool for PowerDNS written in PHP. This guide should work on other Linux VPS systems as well but was tested and written for an Ubuntu 14.04 VPS.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities.
The Domain Name System is an essential component of the functionality of most Internet services because it is the Internet’s primary directory service.
A name server is a computer hardware or software server that implements a network service for providing responses to queries against a directory service. It translates an often humanly-meaningful, text-based identifier to a system-internal, often numeric identification or addressing component.
This service is performed by the server in response to a service protocol request.
