“This article shows how you can install the PowerDNS
nameserver (with MySQL backend) and the Poweradmin control panel
for PowerDNS on a Debian Lenny system. PowerDNS is a
high-performance, authoritative-only nameserver – in the setup
described here it will read the DNS records from a MySQL database
(similar to MyDNS), although other backends such as PostgreSQL are
supported as well. Poweradmin is a web-based control panel for
PowerDNS.

“I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!

“1 Preliminary Note

“In this example I’m using a Debian Lenny host with the hostname
server1.example.com and the IP address 192.168.0.100, set up
according to the first six chapters of this tutorial: The Perfect
Server – Debian Lenny (Debian 5.0) [ISPConfig 2].”
