In the doc it states that one must deal with logging and gives a couple of examples on how (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Chroot-BIND-HOWTO-2.html#ss2.5). The main way they suggest says to us the -a switch in the /etc/sysconfig/syslog file like:
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0 -a /mejail/named/dev/log" I was just finishing the process when I started to think about it (oh boy). What does this do? The man page of syslogd says that it adds an additional socket that syslog has to listen to. Does this mean that the output to the syslog'er will go to the same /var/log logs? Maybe this is simply a matter of doing it and seeing. Just thought I'd maker sure prior to putting my dns in jail... ----------------->>>> Yes the output does go to the regular log files. Followed the how-to and aside from having to chown -R named:named the entire named chroot dir to get it working, it was pretty easy. Oh did have to edit init.d/named because it checked to see if /etc/named.conf was there, which in my case I renamed it to make sure that the right one was being loaded, so I just had it point to the new one. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
