Hello,


cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates
cp named.db custom
cd custom
vi named.db #or any editor
Edit the template from the custom folder and set the values to whatever you want.

when theres a certain file like named.db in the custom dir in /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates, is that being used when creating a new account?

and when theres no file in the custom dir? is uses the ones in /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates?

Are changes made to the SOA refresh active immediately, or are those related to some interval aswell??

thanks I found this useful.

Changes made to the template system will take place whenever the zone files are rewritten.

If you only need or want changes made for one or two domains, you can force a rewrite by going to the DNS for the domain in the control panel, and without checking any of the "Delete" boxes, clicking to delete all checked records.

To rewrite the zone files for all the DNS zones on the server, run this as root:

echo "action=rewrite&value=named" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
