Set up a logging{} statement to send all security category message to
the null channel:

	logging {

		....
		category security {
			channel null;
		};
		....
	};

However if you do that, you'll lose log messages about all unapproved
queries, zone transfer attempts and so on as well as the idiot DDNS
attempts by those MacOS and W2K boxes. You'd lose all the DDNS
attempts too. This might mean you don't get warned of a security
problem - someone trying to corrupt your zone data by attacking your
name servers - or of a violation by someone who does have permission
to do DDNS. I suggest you don't do that. However it's your choice.
