hi all I have my own ip class (256 ip's... bgp) now i'm using google ns servers i want to use my own server's for rezolve name's and I want this server's to be used only for my ip class. It should cache rezult's. I want to be secure as possible, to not be used for ddos...etc. I have done a test and it works. Here is my named.conf Code: options { listen-on port 53 { any; }; listen-on-v6 port 53 { any; }; directory "/var/named"; dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db"; statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt"; memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt"; allow-query { any; }; recursion yes; }; logging { channel default_debug { file "data/named.run"; severity dynamic; }; }; zone "." IN { type hint; file "named.ca"; }; include "/etc/named.conf.local"; but I belive in this configuration... any can use it as a dns server... and i don't want this. Allso I belive it is "opened" to be used for ddos attack. thanks
