hi

From: Patrik Breitenmoser [mailto:pbreitenmoser@festland.ch] Hi all.

I've just installed the bind9 nameserver from the suse7.3 CD and then applayed all patches.

now the name server ist up and running.

my questions is now. what can i do (named.conf, ...) to make the server more secure?

this depends very much on your configuration. how many clients do you have, do you want to allow all clients to be able to query all domains/zones? what about zone-transfers, what about forwarders, client authentication and so on. please provide some more information about your environment, how many clients, how many zones, what do you want to do with it (apart from "i want to resolve names!" - this is why you set up dns after all, i believe ;-) cheers, stefan
