Hello Alan -

Of course you are right, my bad.

Here's the entirety of my named.conf - there's nothing pertaining to logging in here, so I guess that means that 'log everything' is the default. I would only want to log critical named errors, so if anyone has syntax they have my gratitude:

options {
        directory "/var";
        auth-nxdomain no;
        pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
        allow-recursion {
                localnets;
        };

        allow-transfer {
            "none";
        };
};

key "rndc-key" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "CeMgS23y0oWE20nyv0x40Q==";
};

controls {
        inet 127.0.0.1 port 953
        allow { 127.0.0.1; } keys { "rndc-key"; };
};

zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "named.root";
};

zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
        type master;
        file "localhost.rev";
};

include "/etc/dnsmanager.include";


... dnsmanager.include contains nothing but the zone definitions.

Currently I'm not using query logging, it's not in my options at all. Are you 
saying that named logging by syslog into /var/log/messages is controlled by 
named.conf? Seems unlikely, I'd think it would be a function of syslog.conf. 
I'm trying to learn more about it but I'm swamped this am, just thought I'd 
post here to see if anyone knows a quick way to exclude named from the syslog 
completely.

Logging queries to syslog is not on by default (in ISC distributed BIND), so 
something is doing it.

Send us your logging stanza...

(And yes, I'm absolutely sure that logging queries to syslog is handled by 
named.conf)
