Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to ensure that the system is updated with the latest patches and updates. Open the terminal and run the commands below:

Now, add the Yadifa repository with the following command:
sudo zypper addrepo https://repo.yadifa.eu/yadifa.gitlab.io/yadifa/yadifa.repo
After adding the Yadifa repository to the system, we can now install Yadifa. Run the following command to install Yadifa:
sudo zypper install yadifa
The installation process will take a while, depending on the speed of your internet connection.
Once the installation is completed, start the Yadifa service with the following command:
sudo systemctl start yadifa
You can also verify the status of the Yadifa service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl status yadifa
To enable Yadifa to start automatically at boot, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable yadifa
Now that the Yadifa service is up and running, you can configure it to suit your needs. The Yadifa configuration file is located at /etc/yadifa/yadifa.conf. You can modify this file to add DNS zones, configure the DNS server, and more.
Yadifa is now installed and running on your OpenSUSE latest system. It is an excellent open-source authoritative DNS server that can handle DNS requests. We hope this tutorial has been helpful to you.
