I guess I have a simple logging config error. Any idea why I do not see the notify debug log messages? Can somebody please try to reproduce with Bind 9.11.3 ? Why did I see the debug log messages with the same config in Bind 9.8.1 ? > Log config in /etc/bind/named.conf.options with Bind 9.11.3 is exactly the > same as on the old server with Bind 9.8.1: > > logging { > > channel transfer_logfile { > file "/var/log/named/transfer.log" versions 7 size 10m; > severity debug 6; > print-time yes; > print-category yes; > print-severity yes; > }; > > category notify { transfer_logfile; }; > }; > > I tested with "severity debug 16" but that did not help. > I tested with "severity notice", that lead to the "info" log entries to > disappear, so there is just nothing logged anymore for "notify" category, as > expected. > > I also run "rndc trace" six times, so in named.log was logged "general: info: > debug level is now 6" and did a zone reload, but again, no "notify" debug log > entries. > > I also tested with "severity debug 6" in the default log channel, that lead > to debug log entries for categories like "database" etc., so debug log is > generally working. > > How can I get the log entries "sending notify to ..." and "notify response > from ..." back again in the "notify" category log? _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
