[opensuse] DNS configuration question
Hi all, I just moved my internal DNS services from SuSE 9.3 to 11.1. In the process I found a couple of issues. First, and the one I'd rather like to fix is that although everything is working from a client perspective, I get a stream of errors in the logfile (so it'll fill up pretty fast, and presumably isn't working as cleanly/efficiently as it should be). The errors are of the form: Date... host... named[pid]: too many timeouts resolving 'address.somewhere.com/A' (in '.'?): disabling EDNS As I say, despite this, the client's perspective is that everything is working (it's not even slow). Any suggestions? Also, for info, the 11.1 install appeared to create all the necessary parts for this, but set up the named process to run in a jail, but gave ownership of the jail and everything in it to root, such that the named process was complaining that it couldn't write to it's own directories. (named had group-level privileges on these directories, but they were 755, so that didn't help much). This error appeared to prevent named working, but after I chown -R named /var/lib/named it started working. Cheers, Simon "You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.

Add (or uncomment if already there, category edns-disabled { null; }; to your /etc/named.conf in the logging section, and restart or reload. For example, logging { category xfer-in { log_syslog; }; channel log_syslog { syslog; }; category default { log_syslog; }; category lame-servers { null; }; category edns-disabled { null; }; }; -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
