Setup

PowerDNS Version Support:

PowerDNS-Admin supports PowerDNS autoritative server versions 3.4.2 and higher.

pdns Service

I assume that you have already installed pdns service. Make sure that your pdns.conf config file has these contents

PowerDNS 4.0.0 and later

api=yes
api-key=your-powerdns-api-key
webserver=yes

PowerDNS before 4.0.0

experimental-json-interface=yes
experimental-api-key=your-powerdns-api-key
webserver=yes

This will enable API access in pdns service so PowerDNS-Admin can intergrate with it.

Create Database

We will create a database which used by this web application. Please note that this database is difference from pdns database itself.

PowerDNS-Admin supports MySQL server, Maria DB, PostgresQL and SQL Lite.

MariaDB [(none)]> CREATE DATABASE powerdnsadmin;

MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON powerdnsadmin.* TO powerdnsadmin@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'your-password';
