Hi, Maybe anybody knows how to turn off the DNS for ISPConfig? I don not use DNS in ISP so I don't need them. As we known it is better to run off services which are not used (specially BIND). On Debian I try to normally stop bind9 but ISP start him on his start/stop/restart process. So I don't want to use: "update-rc.d -f bind9 remove" because I can broke ISP (I think). So I chose to secure DNS only to listen on localhost by editing confs file: named.conf.options listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; }; listen-on-v6 { none; }; allow-query { 127.0.0.1; }; query-source address 0.0.0.0 port 53; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndc_key; }; }; but after that my "netstat -lp" looks like: tcp 0 0 localhost:953 *:* LISTEN 2930/named udp 0 0 *:domain *:* 2930/named udp 0 0 localhost:domain *:* 2930/named udp6 0 0 *:46768 *:* 2930/named so "*" mean that is open on all interfaces. I don't have any idea for next search. Could you be so kind and help me or share your experience. Thanks! Best regards, MvincM
Yes - thanks - it works. But... there is still link in /etc/rc2.d to /etc/bind9 with letter "S" so after reboot server run once again (or maybe after starting bind isp turn him off). MvincM
