Public bug reported: Release: Xenial/16.04
While trying to quiet down IPv6 related messaged from named (not quite there, yet), I added the relevant options to the defaults file (/etc/default/bind9 -> OPTIONS="-u bind"). Unfortunately this file is totally ignored by the systemd service unit. After changing it like below, I got the desired behaviour: /lib/systemd/system/bind9.service: ... [Service] +EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/bind9 -ExecStart=/usr/sbin/named -f -u bind +ExecStart=/usr/sbin/named -f $OPTIONS ExecReload=/usr/sbin/rndc reload ExecStop=/usr/sbin/rndc stop ** Affects: bind9 (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: xenial ** Summary changed: - The systemd unit for dhcp server should use the default config + The systemd unit for DNS server should use the default config -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575514 Title: The systemd unit for DNS server should use the default config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bind9/+bug/1575514/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
