local.cf is the obvious one. Also: init.pre v330.pre and maybe v340.pre I'm suggesting those because the new user MUST modify them (local.cf) and the others because they would seem to be controlling modules that issue DNS-like queries that a new user might consider killing off. I also think that supplying simple boilerplate config files for bind and unbound that cause them to simply issue non-forwarded DNS queries would be a good idea because configuring bind for the first time is non- trivial. I would have found configuring it quite difficult without buying the O'Reilly 'locust' book "DNS and Bind". I haven't used unbound so have no idea how easy it would be to set up to support just non-forwarded queries. Martin
