NSEdit is a powerful open-source tool that allows system administrators to manage DNS zones and records on a Bind server. In this tutorial, we will be showing you the step-by-step guide on how to install NSEdit on Clear Linux Latest.
Before we can install NSEdit on Clear Linux Latest, we need to make sure that we have all the necessary dependencies installed. In this case, we will need to install Git.
Open the terminal and type the following command to install Git:
sudo swupd bundle-add git
Once Git is installed, we can now clone the NSEdit repository. To do this, use the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/tuxis-ie/nsedit.git
This will create a new directory named nsedit in your current directory. Navigate into the nsedit folder by running the following command:
cd nsedit
To install NSEdit, we can use the installation script provided in the repository. Run the following command to begin the installation process:
sudo ./install.sh
The installation script will prompt you to enter the Bind configuration file location. If you are unsure where it is located, you can leave it blank and it will use the default location /etc/bind/named.conf.
Once the installation is complete, you should see a message similar to the following:
NSEdit installation complete.
To verify that NSEdit has been installed successfully, run the following command to check the version number:
nsedit -v
This should output the NSEdit version number.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed NSEdit on Clear Linux Latest. You can now start using NSEdit to manage your DNS zones and records. If you encounter any issues during the installation, refer to the NSEdit repository or reach out to the NSEdit community for support.
