This was ment for the bind-users list. But if anyone has an answer, it
would be greatly welcomed. Afterall, this is from my bind app on my
Centos server.

Subject: disabling lame server logging

Continuing to 'clean up' my new server by reviewing logged messages.
Researching a common one:
Feb 26 07:30:29 onlo named[19336]: error (unexpected RCODE SERVFAIL)
resolving 'foo.com/MX/IN': 1.2.3.4#53
I get the drift that my server has been directed to a 'lame server' and
logs that fact. Supposedly I am to lookup the SOA record and contact
the admin to fix this. What I really want to do is stop all these
messages as I suspect I will not be able to do anything to fix the
problem. So far what I have found is to add to my global logging section:
category lame-servers { null; };
Is there a finer scalpel? I believe there are other lame server
failures? Like 'RCODE REFUSED' and 'RCODE 15' (these are the 3 I
see in
my messages)? Can I block logging by RCODE, so as new ones appear I can
learn what they mean before /dev/null ing them?
