What "standard" is this? The default logging for named goes to syslog, and from there it's up to your syslogd to decide if/where it should be written. Perhaps what you want is a separate log channel for queries? This is what I use: logging { channel "default_log" { file "logs/named.log" versions unlimited size 4194304; severity dynamic; print-time yes; print-severity yes; print-category yes; }; channel "query_log" { file "logs/query.log" versions 10 size 2097152; severity dynamic; print-time yes; }; category "default" { "default_log"; }; category "queries" { "query_log"; }; }; Those paths are relative to the "directory" which is set in your options{}. Adjust to suit. > We would like to log everything else but not the reverse > resolution queries. Why (and why not?) What's the actual problem? And what do you plan to do with all those query logs? Query logging has a substantial impact on server performance. -- http://rob0.nodns4.us/ Offlist GMX mail is seen only if "/dev/rob0" is in the Subject: _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
