Hi All
I believe the only stupid question is the question you have never asked so here goes.
It is only loosely related to security. YOu should ask it somewhere else in the future.
I keep getting lame servers popping up if I do a tail -f /var/log/messages. How can I fix this bind problem?. I believe it's a problem with a out dates root.zone or root.hint file?.. were can I get a updated one?..
Do "host -t ns -v .", then you have them. When bind8 starts up, it asks _all_ servers in root.hint for the root nameservers. If it only gets one reply, it will be fine.
Aug 13 13:00:02 DoubleHelix named[622]: Lame server on '200.1.6.192.in-addr.arpa' (in '1.6.192.in-addr.arpa'?): [4.2.49.2].53 'KNOCK.SER.BBNPLANET.COM'
Lame servers are delegated but can't privide the zone. It is interesting that the network 192.6.0.0 - 192.6.2.255 belongs to Hewlett-Packard, according to arin.
