hello, I have bind9 on my server, and it manages 2 domains without problems (master dns for these two). Anyway, I kept the root zone entry in named.conf, and later replaced it by a forwarders option, because i'dd like to use the nameserver as normal ns for the system too, so it should resolve all domains existant. the problem is, that some wicky guys seem to use my dns-server regularely what creates big amount of traffic (2.5GB last month). how can i restrict 'lookup of remote domain' to localhost, and resolve only the 2 local domains to remote requests? other way round: I like restrict usage of the forwarders-option, or of the root zone to localhost. The problem is: both configuration options don't allow allow-query argument, so I have no glue about how to restrict access for these. bye jonas ps: as i'm not subscribed, please cc to my private mail -- Attached file included as plaintext by Ecartis -- -- File: signature.asc -- Desc: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAy0eJd6lUs+JfIQIRAhACAJ9IY7ahSXsYno24lrw4gSxCckp06ACeLK9g pFuzkVHOo+OvG41Bgsxenwg= =0zzK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
