Sebastian;

Thanks so much for that! I will try this at the slave server.

I already configured for the master and these are my first issues:

15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:15: ignoring out-of-zone data (EduardoBonsi.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:16: ignoring out-of-zone data (ftp.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:17: ignoring out-of-zone data (mail.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:18: ignoring out-of-zone data (ns1.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:19: ignoring out-of-zone data (ns2.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:20: ignoring out-of-zone data (qtdss.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: warning: /var/named/bonsi.org.external.hosts:21: ignoring out-of-zone data (www.45.200.63.in-addr.arpa) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: error: zone bonsi.org/IN/external: NS 'ns1.bonsi.org' has no address records (A or AAAA) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: error: zone bonsi.org/IN/external: NS 'ns2.bonsi.org' has no address records (A or AAAA) 15-Nov-2011 13:40:58.312 general: error: zone bonsi.org/IN/external: bonsi.org/MX 'mail.bonsi.org' has no address records (A or AAAA)

I will fix these issues right the way.


For those out there interested to know how I did, here the steps:

1. inserted these at the end of named.conf

logging {
        channel dnssec_log {
                file "log/dnssec" size 20m;
                print-time yes;
                print-category yes;
                print-severity yes;
                severity debug 3;
                };
        category dnssec {
                dnssec_log;
                default_syslog;
                default_debug;
                default_stderr;
                };

//
channel "debug" {
file "/var/log/named/namedlogs" versions 2 size 50m;
severity warning;
print-time yes;
print-severity yes;
print-category yes;
     };
category "default" { "debug"; };
category "general" { "debug"; };
category "database" { "debug"; };
category "security" { "debug"; };
category "config" { "debug"; };
category "resolver" { "debug"; };
category "xfer-in" { "debug"; };
category "xfer-out" { "debug"; };
category "notify" { "debug"; };
category "client" { "debug"; };
category "unmatched" { "debug"; };
category "network" { "debug"; };
category "update" { "debug"; };
category "queries" { "debug"; };
category "dispatch" { "debug"; };
category "dnssec" { "debug"; };
category "lame-servers" { "debug"; };
};

2. You must create the path and the file using the terminal as "root" just the way it show here:

[user:~] root# cd /var/log
[user:/var/log] root# mkdir named
[user:/var/log] root# cd

3. To create the file inside of the directory /var/log/named/, use nano;

[user:~] root# nano /var/log/named/namedlogs

Hello,

Log statement is whole config block.
Probably this link help you better :
http://bec.at/support/bind9/Bv9ARM.ch06.html#AEN1566
Below I attach my example :

// declare log statement
logging {
         // declare chanel log2messages
         channel log2_s {
                 syslog daemon; // where logs should be directed
                 severity warning;
                 print-category no;
                 print-severity no;
                 print-time no;
         };
         //declare debug channel
         channel log2_debug {
                 syslog daemon;
                 severity debug;
                 print-category yes;
                 print-severity yes;
                 print-time yes;
         };
        // declare /dev/null
         channel log2_null {
                 null;
         };


        // declare which category should use which declaration
         category default { log2_syslog; };
         category config { log2_syslog; };
         category queries { log2_syslog; };
         category lame-servers { log2_syslog; };
         category update { log2_debug; };
         category xfer-in { log2_syslog; };
         category xfer-out { log2_syslog; };
         category notify { log2_syslog; };
         category security { log2_null; ;
};


Best regards,

Sebastian

Thanks! I was looking at this log statement last night. I found two
statements: Not sure what is the best one to debug.
They are also not clear where to insert these statements:
On options or some place else in the end of named.conf.

http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch7/logging.html

logging{
  channel simple_log {
    file "/var/log/named/bind.log" versions 3 size 5m;
    severity warning;
    print-time yes;
    print-severity yes;
    print-category yes;
  };
  category default{
    simple_log;
  };
};

Hi,

Look at this : http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch7/logging.html
For troubleshooting I suggest using debug mode.

Best regards,
Sebastian

What is the best statement to insert on name.conf to generate logs for
troubleshooting bind 9.x?

Thanks!
