Erich, Thanks very much! The cr.yp.to site is a gold mine. Thanks for saving me (apparently) from Bind!
After perusing the site and reading some of the scripts on Bering, I set /etc/dnscache/env/QUERYLOG to YES, expecting to find /var/log/dnscache containign logs of DNS queries. But no such directory was created, although the script /etc/init.d/dnscache seems to do that. Maybe a bug somewhere?

What does dnscache log on to? ;-) >It would be nice to know what is going on in non-forwarding mode. dnscache is part of djbdns. The way djb marks his presence on the net it must do something useful. see http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html from http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/dnscache-conf.html ..... dnscache-conf creates an automatically rotated log directory in D/log/main. The logs are owned by logacct. The corresponding multilog processes run under the uid and gid of logacct. The name logacct must not contain any special characters. Mhhh.... everybody has the right to write his own logging facility. cheers Erich THINK P�ntenstrasse 39 8143 Stallikon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Fingerprint: BC9A 25BC 3954 3BC8 C024 8D8A B7D4 FF9D 05B8 0A16 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
