Subject: random device settings on bind9
I have set up bind 9.2.3 on 4.10. I followed the instructions for setting
up random as per the instructions at the end of the bind install.
the instructions say to add the rndc-key in my namd.conf. I was wondering
if that is a good idea? Doesn't this file get quarried by people on the
Internet. So am I basically just showing my secret key to everyone?
Thank you, Joshua Lewis
No you're not. The named.conf file doesn't get queried from the net. It's only function is to provide options to the daemon and how to respond to the rndc command channel.
