zone "rac" IN {
                 type master; 
                 file "forward.zone"; 
                  
};
zone "72.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
                 type master;
                 file "reverse.zone";
                 };
5.change the ownership and owner of these files by below command :-

chown named:named *.*

6.create the named.conf into /var/named/chroot/etc

7.content of named.conf :-

options {
listen-on port 53 { 192.168.72.128; };
# listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; };
        directory "/var/named";
        recursion yes;
        };
logging {
        channel default_debug {
        file "data/named.run";
        severity dynamic;
        };
};
  include "named.rfc1912.zones";

8.change the ownership and owner of these files by below command :-

chown named:named *.*

9.config the file /etc/resolv.conf

10.content of /etc/resolv.conf

search rac
nameserver 192.168.72.128

11.change the ownership and owner of these files by below command :-

chown named:named *.*

12. start the named service :-

service named start

chkconfig named on

13.Test the DNS IP reachability :-

nslookup rac

nslookup rac2

nslookup rac-cluster-scan

14. contents of /etc/hosts file :-

cat /etc/hosts
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost
::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
#eth1 - PUBLIC
192.168.72.128 rac
192.168.72.129 rac2
#VIP
192.168.72.102 rac-vip
192.168.72.104 rac2-vip
#eth2 - PRIVATE
192.168.140.128 rac-pvt
192.168.140.129 rac2-pvt
