BIND9 auth server on Docker

#Introduction Dockerfile to create a Docker container image for BIND DNS server(authoritative name server).

BIND is open source software that implements the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols for the Internet. It is a reference implementation of those protocols, but it is also production-grade software, suitable for use in high-volume and high-reliability applications.

If you find this image useful here's how you can help:

• Send a pull request with your awesome features and bug fixes
• Help users resolve their issues.

Before reporting your issue please try updating Docker to the latest version and check if it resolves the issue. Refer to the Docker installation guide for instructions.

SELinux users should try disabling SELinux using the command setenforce 0 to see if it resolves the issue.

If the above recommendations do not help then report your issue along with the following information:

• Output of the docker version and docker info commands
• The docker run command or docker-compose.yml used to start the image. Mask out the sensitive bits.
• Please state if you are using Boot2Docker, VirtualBox, etc.

This image is available as a trusted build on the Docker hub and is the recommended method of installation.

$ docker pull knqyf263/bind-auth:latest

Alternatively you can build the image yourself.

$ git clone https://github.com/knqyf263/docker-bind-auth.git
$ cd docker-bind-auth
$ docker build --tag $USER/bind .

Start BIND using:

$ docker run --name bind -d --publish 53:53/udp knqyf263/bind-auth:latest
