[stork-users] Stork agent cannot connect through rndc

[Mik J]

Stork: 1.18.0
OS: Openbsd 7.5

Hello,

I made my stork agent to be installed on one of my DNS.

However I get this message
INFO[2024-08-16 11:00:46]            bind9.go:560   Found BIND 9 config file in /var/named/etc/named.conf based on output of `named -V`.
ERRO[2024-08-16 11:00:49]            agent.go:311   Failed to forward commands to rndc            Address="127.0.0.1" Port="953" error="exit status 1"


If I run the command manually, it works
# rndc -b 127.0.0.1 -s 127.0.0.1 -p 953 -k /etc/rndc.key status
version: BIND 9.18.28 (Extended Support Version) <id:f77fadb> ()
running on localhost: OpenBSD amd64 7.5 GENERIC.MP#82
boot time: Fri, 16 Aug 2024 02:07:05 GMT
last configured: Fri, 16 Aug 2024 02:07:05 GMT
configuration file: /etc/named.conf (/var/named/etc/named.conf)
...

How to debug this problem ?

- How does stork knows what is the rndc.key, does it read it in named.conf or should it read /etc/rndc.key
- If it reads /etc/rndc.key, how does it know where to find this file ?


Also I see that the stork agent tries to connect to 127.0.0.1 using rndc but I haven't specified the stork agent to use this adress (although that's the one I want)
But, in general, how is the stork agent supposed to find the DNS server adress and port ?

Regards
