Be very careful, watch your back.
Someone may be trying to get you paranoid! And you are following their 
game.

Does anyone else have access to your host ?


I doubt it. The only access to the host is via ssh. The last log is not 
damaged or altered, the all.log is no altered too.

The only person who accessed the server is me.
Also, the file is restored in some previous condition, but i do not make 
backups of it and copies are not stored anywhere.
I doubt that someone made copies from 2011 and 2012 to the overwrite it. 
That seems highly unlikely.



Have you ever call the police ?


Ever - yes, in this case - no.


Do you monitor access to your box?


Yes. Nothing suspicious found.
I really suspect that this is a filesystem glitch.

There is a zone file there which i changed last week.
Today in the morning i try to open a site and host name is not
found. It worked on friday.
I went to see the the zone file. IT WAS DATED 2010  I open
it and the serial number is
something like 201103021. I do all my serials using dates, so,
while the file date is 2010
the content is from 2011 and it sure does looks so.
Then i go to secondary zone (slave) on another server and
there i find the zone from last week.
I checked all logs  and did not find anything special. The
zone file from 2010 just reappeared
from nowhere kill all the new changes.
As i said, i saw things like this in the past. It happened
insides jails and was related to files
for web sites and i thought that i and someone else messed up.
No i think i saw the same thing.


It happened today again! I checked file today and the file was
dated 5 oct 2012 but content was
from a week ago except the serial. I changed it yesterday. No
automatic  backup or restore is running.
Uptime is 321 day.  last says not one has logged in since yerterday.
I am going crazy.

Then it's much easier if it happens again.

If it's the zone then BIND may seem to overwrite the file? I can do this in
the case it's a primary zone service. I'm informed it's all about the primary
not a secondary zone service but hence BIND isn't a piece of cake who knows.

Since that you can do this:

  - chmod file(s) for BIND to read-only it.

  - monitor certain directories for changes. I have no idea about the tool to
handle this task but it's quite possible with inotify() system call and/or
the sgi fam protocol, particularly its sysutils/gamin implementation.
